Hi Jack

Yes, that is what I thought, but as I didn't expect to be fixing any KDE 
stuff, I just downloaded the binaries, plus KMM source.  One of those 
quick fixes that turn out not to be.

 From what Cristian said recently, 4.6.4 is the last bug-fix release. 
Whether he'll think of a 4.6.4W, I don't know.

Unless I get particularly bored, I think I'll leave Windows to others. 
The thought did occur to me, though, that if something goes amiss in the 
CSV plugins, then that could be tricky.  I could produce a patch, but 
not be able to test it.
