Just confirmed myself now seems WordPress bumped a table in my plugin and
readjusted things. It should work properly now.

I don't think this is true for the macOS build but the Windows binaries can
be cross-compiled under Linux. The only downside I see to that is that it's
not signed nor is there an installer generated. So it sounds more like this
is just a decision based on time vs GNU philosophy.

Also, to the person that's hosting the unofficial binaries; it looks like
your link to the source is broken:
https://casualgamer.ca/index.php/download/55/ leads to a "Download does not
