Yes, Installed 0.1.10.1-3 after removing 0.1.12.1-1 and it works fine.

One difference I notes is that 0.1.10.1 uses legacy usb support with
libusbd-nt.exe or libusbd-9x.exe in addition to libusb0.sys.
This was removed in April 2005 in the libusb-win32 svn repository at
SourceForge.
Also there is now an /usr/lib/libusb/install-filter.exe which did not
exist in 0.1.10.1-3.
