The thing is, "Studio 12 with patches" isn't a precise enough definition. Witness doof, who is now getting weird local symbol issues while compiling with "Studio 12 with patches" -- I think we narrowed that down to him having a -04 version of a patch where you and I use -02? We need to say *exactly* such-and-such a version, to the point of having download URLs and saying "get that." Because while it's nice to shake out compiler bugs -- and we have in the past -- at some point we need to get on with our own stuff.
