Subject: Problem with latest setup-x86.exe
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

On only one of my Windows 7 machines the latest setup-x86.exe
works but always exits with an Access Violation.

So, I downloaded the source to setup and built it.

But in order to make the build work, I had to remove -Werror
from the Makefile and add a definition for ARRAYSIZE to main.cc.

The fix to the Access violation was to remove an extra "_" in
the code for the argv handling in main.cc

This is just FWIW -- but it fixed my problem. The patches
I used follow:
