OK, I reviewed some bugs. Could I ask that someone review 941881 (Martin would be ideal, as he knows the Windows build process - 1006948 should probably be included as well). If I'm being cheeky by effectively asking that a suite of patches be reviewed in exchange for 5 bugs, then I'll review some more - I don't have time now, unfortunately. I justify myself by claiming that the suite of patches is in effect one big patch split into multiple tracker items... :-) Bugs reviewed: 1083306 - looks fine to me, I recommend applying. I've added a patch for CVS HEAD. 1058960 - already fixed in CVS HEAD (rev 1.45) - can be closed. Backport candidate? 1033422 - This is standard Windows behaviour, and should be retained. I recommend closing "Won't Fix". 1016563 - The patch looks fine, I've added a patch against CVS HEAD. The change was introduced in revision 1.32 from patch 527518. It looks accidental. I can't reproduce the problem, but I can see that it could be an issue. I recommend applying the patch. 977250 - Not a bug. I've given an explanation in the tracker item, and would recommend closing "Won't Fix". Also, while looking at patches I noticed 1077106. It doesn't apply to me - I don't use Linux - but it looks like this may have simply been forgotten. The last comment is in December from from Michael Hudson, saying in effect "I'll commit this tomorrow". Michael?
