No, it doesn't.

I tried the Euphoria-coded "Chicago" sample program
on my new Vista machine. It runs fine. 
*Very* impressive 3-D graphics.

In Euphoria 3.0.0, several users convinced me to make this change:

   "Include files with the same file name but a different path 
    as an earlier include, will no longer be ignored. To be ignored, 
    an include must refer to the exact same file as an earlier include."

So I guess if you want to use safe.e, you should rename the standard
machine.e in euphoria\include, and then copy safe.e into machine.e
Remember to put the original machine.e back when you are finished.

I'll change the instructions at the top of safe.e
