Jim,

The GDI issue is a Windows-only problem, but the installation
instructions mention Linux and Mac OS X. Are there other fixes in this
jar file that I might benefit from on other platforms? I could use any
relief available for my Workbench woes (I wanted to use the Workbench
yesterday and it took me 15 minutes of trying to get the Workbench
launched).
