1. RE: win32lib v0.57.4 released - makes bindw crash

Derek,
with this version installed bindw crashes with the following error:
D:\Euphoria\Bin\bind.ex:1304 in function Fk()
type_check failure, Fu is -1
It was enough to restore Win32lib.ew V0.57.1, nothing else, to have bindw work
fine again.
Thanks for the good job anyway.
