That's kind of what I thought :-)

It certainly looks like it would fix it. However, the gnuwin32 project
doesn't have 2.3, not even 2.2. But let's add a check and say we need
it, and then we can fix it again once they do release that version if
it's broken still...
Do you happen to have a 2.2 around so you can see what happens there? Or
does someone else have that? So I know which version to test against...
