yes, that's why i chose that specific version - i'd tried keinjo's (?)
recommended one for vst_server, but i ran into some problems with that
version of wine, as i recall ...

ditto with crystal - i'm just using it to test the actual functionality
of jack_fst - i'd never really used in windows, but for the brief time
