Actually, I see what the problem is. Your previous e-mail mentioned:

I copied those sources out there, but I didn't even think about it.
The README.win32 file actually says:


+         The latest version of my port, 19991218, might be buggier than
+         the next-to-previous version, 1990828.  If you have problems
+         with the latest version, try the 19990828 version instead.
+ 
+ and the problems seemed not to be present with the 19990828 version.  If
+ you see problems (e.g., a mangled hex dump window), that version can be
+ found at
+ 
+         http://www.gimp.org/~tml/gimp/win32/index-19990828.html
+ 
+ or
+ 
+         http://www.iki.fi/~tml/gimp/win32/index-19990828.html


So it's the 19990828 dev zip files that you need, not 19991218.

I don't have those zip files on my system anymore. Does anyone else?
If need be, I'll create a zip files from the headers and libs and dlls that I have
in my win32 tools tree.
