I will look at it and try to compile them on MinGW, or maybe you can send
your binaries to me?

I'm not sure about this one. Does it exist a "Official db version for

I think this is the best solution . Then we have diff*s that allways
functions with svn and we don't mess with the user's system.
('C:\Program Files' contains spaces and are usally not in use by non

On the same place where the binary files I grabbed come from ;-)
Should I include the sources? The svn sources are aviable from the
Subversion site and the distro will be _very_big_ with all this sources.
I'm I forced to include the Diff and Berkley Sources? And what about
lisence notes for diffutils and
