There are many other options: We could provide an ant target to rebuild all the native code for linux/posix OSs, and one for windows. We could have it overwrite the existing native binaries, and keep the ones for other platforms. We could put all the native binaries in one place (Contrib/binaries/windows etc), and have an ant target to delete them. It shouldn't be a big problem. Volunteers? > > NextGen$
