Nice to see the ancient one works. :) However, I think the build version is not relevant, it is how and with what compiler it has been compiled. Also different libc*.dll versions may cause a mess. I stopped compiling other versions than the klibc version that runs fine in my WSEB 4.52 CP2 system. But no warranty. ;)

Feel free to freq magic BINKD2 any time from here and you'll get the nightly version. :)
