WRT the new layout of lib/bin.  I know that you specify how to fix the 
permissions of the executables on the linux download page, but is it 
possible to get the files as a tarball so they do not have to be set?  Or 
to set the permissions in the zipfile (not sure about that one).  It 
seems weird that a distribution for linux has to have its permissions set 
manually.  I know it's been this way forever, but it does get annoying to 
have to twiddle with an installation every time I install it.  It 
probably isn't too much to host 2 different archives of the same file, 
one in tgz format and one in zip.

BTW, the new layout is good for cygwin users, because previous to this on 
windows, I had to remove the linux executables.  Cygwin would try to 
execute those first before finding the .exe versions.
