Hi, Jesse!  My apologies for not answering earlier.

We traced this bug to a side-effect of an earlier fix for compilation
on Solaris.  Unfortunately, this fix was subtly broken on platforms
that used signed char by default, and was very broken on windows with
non-ASCII characters.

We will have an rc7 out within a day or so that should fix this
problem and a few others.

Thanks for your patience,
