Does anyone understand what problem the w32_* functions in liboctave/cruft/misc/cquit.c are trying to solve? They don't compile properly on 64-bit Windows systems because of the use of the Eip field in the thread context structure. A binary that I compiled without them for 64-bit Windows (MinGW) appears to handle Control-C interrupts at the command line properly. Perhaps these functions were needed at some time in the past, but are they really needed now?
