Well, as a matter of fact I answered to your question in mail n.3 :) <\quote> Versions 5.1.0 and 5.2.0 from binaries work well (so you might be righteous asking why I am bothering the mailing list with the compiling from source not working matter... fact is that I started from the source code and I am a bit disappointed about this hitch) <\etouq> Anyway thanks a lot for helping me. It must be my pc that is sort of misconfigured. I'll stick to the precompiled binaries.
