between this and his comments about the gpl, i'd be a bit wary to try
anything written by imad.  for the compiler issue it's pretty much true
for many systems that code compiled even on the same machine can produce
different binaries for the same source.  in addition, although i can't
find a reference, i remember reports that visual c++ can include garbage
data in generated binaries.

running around spreading fud about others work to boost your own is the
sign of a developer with little confidence in their own work.
