 The actual tar balls are available from SourceForge, I didn't realize that
they were not available from the FTP site. I'll ensure that the ones for
2.9.2 release will be available from both places.

 This code actually needs to be changed so while I'm aware of this warning
I don't want to just suppress it and will apply a proper (but more
extensive) fix after 2.9.2.

GC> ../src/common/docview.cpp:1485: warning: 'docNew' might be used 
uninitialized in this function

 This is the notorious exception-related warning that I don't know how to
fix.

 Argh, I thought I fixed this one in r67964 but I actually didn't somehow.
The warning is harmless but I'll fix it nevertheless.

GC> ../src/propgrid/property.cpp:2108: warning: passing `double' for converting

 I'll fix this one as well. FWIW there are many dozens other warnings in
propgrid code when compiling with -Wconversion in 64 bits as it implicitly
converts among int, long and size_t all over the place. But I won't change
this now to avoid breaking something just before the release.

 Thanks for the warnings,

P.S. And I'll be looking at your other message about the crash soon...
