Here is a suggestion from another Gnumeric user (I don't use windows at home where I am able to spend time on Gnumeric).
Morten - give Pedro a procedure he can follow for updating his gnumeric install using an older installer with binaries from your builds. Pedro - get yourself 7z ( http://www.7-zip.org/ ) or similar so you can open tar.* archives, and see how you can utilize the builds that the devs can provide at this point.
