Hi to all. Some users have problem with the BSpline and Spirolive branch for windows. Brainless offer to me compile it to windows.
Its hard, but finaly hi locate the problem whith some fonts, he think is solved and finaly can make the executable.
The build issues related to the compiler version have been sorted out: apparently the Windows installer of TDM-GCC has an odd concept of usability and happily defaults to installing a newer version (4.7.1) instead of the one specifically downloaded (4.6.1).
But other user have the same problem, whith fonts and when open preferences dialog, inkscape crash.
I think the problem isnt in the modifications added to the branch... Any body whith knoweledge in windowd, and some english..., could help to me to help this users? Or do directly.

AFAIU Druban repeated at least twice that the same problems occur with unmodified development snapshot builds by UweSch and thus are neither related to Brainless' builds specifically, nor to your changes in the LiveSpiro+BSpline branch.
<off-topic> (your branch compiles and works fine on OS X btw - after a few quick tests I just miss that in LiveSpiro and BSpline mode the right mouse button doesn't finish the path in the same way as in the other existing modes ;-) ) </off-topic>
- Font warnings: The warnings about failing to load certain fonts seem related to recent changes in trunk >= 12105 (see also [1]), but AFAIU they don't cause Inkscape to crash. There have been a few reports about random crashes with the Windows port related to the font-menu changes [2], but - based on the 'steps to reproduce' in the bug reports - those crashes are always triggered by accessing the font drop-down list, and not when opening preferences or document properties.

- Corrupt preferences/user keymap file: The problem with corrupt preferences/keymap files had been mentioned by Druban earlier (late January, before the recent font-related changes, and with revisions earlier than r12089) [3] - at that time, I had tried to reproduce it but failed: using custom keyboard shortcuts created with trunk, and switching between stable and trunk versions didn't trigger crashes nor serious conflicts/file corruptions e.g. on OS X and Ubuntu 12.10. It would be helpful if Druban filed a report in the bug tracker and attach a zip archive with the default Inkscape preferences folder which worked without issues with development snapshot builds last year, and one that got "corrupted" after switching between recent development snapshot builds and latest stable 0.48.4, to allow further investigation.

- Crash when opening Inkscape Preferences / Document Properties: Probably I would have pointed to similar bug reports as Brainless already did in the forum topic [4]: maybe Druban's recent crashes are also related to/triggered by certain color profiles installed on that specific machine. IIRC Druban used to have a custom default template with a color profile linked in - maybe this also contributes to the mentioned problems. Again it could be helpful if Druban filed a new bug report (with zip archives of the inkscape preferences folder, including any relevant ICC color profiles if possible). Maybe JazzyNico or Alvin will then be able to reproduce the crashes on Windows and provide backtraces from gdb…
