would be very surprised when there will be no complaints at all ;-)
That's very unfortunate situation.

WinGRASS builds are broken since May because several reasons:

1) git migration
2) attempt to update building environment (gcc 4.x to newer version)
3) various strange problems with new build environment
4) lack of time to fix all the issues during summer

I am planning to invest some time during FOSS4G 2019 code sprint on
Saturday and most importantly the next week with hope to fix crucial
problems in order to offer builds again. But it's painful experience.

Martin
