(I'm making this comment on the mailing list because it's kinda beyond the
scope of this particular bug.)

Thanks Jaap and Martin (if you're listening here) for sorting this out. I
simply didn't have any energy or time to look at it since I discovered the
problem.

Jaap, will this fix be included in the 0.53 release, and when do you think
that might be?

I'm inclined to leave things as they are on the Zim for Windows web page,
even if it's going to be a while. 0.50 is quite stable and useful in
Windows, and I can include some clearer pointers for those that want to
build it from trunk.
