Thank you. I was able to update to the latest X packages this evening.
Still having trouble with them not working properly on my Windows 8.1
systems, but it may be related to firewalling and VPN split-tunneling
not working as I'd expect. I'll continue to troubleshoot, and hopefully
someone can look at the setup programs' current failure to work on Win8
and/or with winsymlinks:lnk set.
