Thank you for warning me with more than enough time. :-)

Sure. I have just released zutils 1.3-rc1 fixing a couple missing 
#includes. All the other rc's can be considered stable, but I want to be 
as sure as possible that they have no issues. So I plan to give people a 
month more to test them before releasing stable versions in September.
