That's... interesting.

I don't see any changes since 23.2.94 that seem likely to cause a
regression.  The only build-related change was the change to Makefile.in
in 100490, which should not even have any effect on Windows.  I recall
that 23.2.94 built with no problems, is that right?

(BTW, if there really is a problem that we have to fix in the sources,
don't apply the fix and make the Windows binaries rightaway; we'd need
to make another release candidate, so wait for that.)
