The original fix was indeed done for a reason.
My best guess (as I said in another email on the msysgit list today, where
Ferry probably did not expect helpful information): msys-1.0.dll was not
properly updated.
sorry for that, I am subscribed to git.devel only. probably should
have checked the msysgit list
I worked on a check for this some time ago, but I forgot to finish and
include it in our official 'devel'.
does this mean that we can expect a '-2' msysgit release soon?
