Hello,

As is usual for a new release, there are now several bug reports against 
1.38.0, most of which I have fixed. I take all bugs seriously, but with one 
exception, I don't consider the reported bugs to be "serious" in the sense of 
losing or corrupting data.

The exception is a report yesterday from Thorsten Engel, our Win32 expert.  
He reports:

When doing a win32 Backup, the first file is sent as stream of type 4 (DATA), 
but the content is of type 12 (WIN32_DATA). This means, the first backed up 
file can not be restored correctly. This problem only exists if "portable = 
no", of course.

I haven't yet verified it, and I don't know if it is an old bug or a new one 
in 1.38.0, but from his analysis of the code that he described, it looks to 
me like it *is* a bug.

So, for all Win32 please be aware of this problem and take whatever prcautions 
you fell necessary.  I will post a fixed Win32 binary as soon as I can verify 
the problem and correct it.

Best regards,

Kern
