To be honest, I havent tested the windows version, I dont really run a 
windows installation anywhere. I just falsely assumed If i do:

cmake ..
make
make install

That is the default package build, since it sets all the build flags to 
the default values, and if I do this the simulator is not running. At 
least I think the default values for what is going to be in v5 should be 
changed to reflect that, otherwise if a beginning dev does not specify 
those specific flags, the build will not reflect the user experience, 
its an uneccesary mismatch IMO. I have run the nightly with the debug 
flag set for a long time now, but newer seen the simulator until I 
actively decided to give it a whirl. There might be others.

I always get a Spice_Model field as well for the passives, I havent 
really investigated what it does for the passives as of yet or how they 
relate or sync. But I do find it a bit strange that there are two fields 
describing the value of the passives, and it does confuse me a bit. Just 
thought I might bring it up before it becomes just a "quirk" with a 
good-enough work-around. ( like the stitch via that stuck around for 
very long ).
