No, it hasn't.

I'm just rebuilding Ethereal with the proper build options. Please be
patient, this may take a while (and needs to be done twice).

As I'm not sure I'll finish this during the next day or so: Can you
please open a bugreport in our bugtracking system for this?

Thanks

works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
