I read the report and it relates to "G_PRIORITY_HIGH_IDLE" during
compiling.  Unfortunately, I do not know how to compile (nor I have
the tools) in winxp.  Maybe I'll have to wait for another update.

As for GimPhoto 1.4, it is based on Gimp 2.4.0.  But, just found out
last night it has a problem in showing Histogram.  The histogram is
only updated after I accepted the changes (e.g. level).  So, looks
like I am back to Gimp 2.2 for now.

Thanks for your help.
