There may be some problems that need to be fixed so this version may not become the 4.2.0 release without some changes but I hope to not have more than one or two more release candidates before the 4.2.0 release is final.

Please try to build this version and report any problems you find in the bug tracker.  I've added a new version tag for the release candidate, so please use that when reporting problems.

In installer for Windows will be available from the same location once it is finished building and I've had a chance to test the installer and run the test suite.

This is on computer with a Galium/Nvidia card. I have not tried the others (yet).

The problem seems intermittent and i am wondering if this is a hardware issue

(heating?) with discrete graphics cards... ​
