I will try to build. I used to do it, and I got screwed up trying to use the scripting builds with wxPython and ran into build problems. Then Adam’s builds came online (although not his DEBUG/scripting (?) builds) and I stopped trying.

I can also download earlier builds, and see if I can figure out where it fails.
