Mark,

Perhaps we can ask Thac what "magic" he did to get this to compile; I 
have just updated to his recent build of Xfst on Wine 20050930 and it 
works like a trooper on my 64 bit box and an old SBlive 5.1. It runs all 
my regular suite of Vst's and they are operational with no obvious GUI 
bugs. Mind you, I have not put them through the paces on any recording 
but they do fire up and work.
