Oh right. Thanks for pointing this out.

No. It is important that ssize_t is a signed variable (I figure that is what
the extra s stands for), and size_t is generally an unsigned one. Make it
'#define ssize_t int' instead and it is likely to work better. I've just
added that define to the config-win32.h file.

That's really odd. Can you fill in with more clues and traces? I really
haven't been mocking with the upload parts. And as Craig Davison filled in
yesterday, I'm not the only one who manage to use that without problems.

So if you have both 7.5 and 7.6 around, it still works with 7.5 but not with
7.6?

... and this is not what you would expect?
