Thanks, this probably means that, indeed, it has been fixed.
BTW, I happened to use Win98, on what Win32 platform did you check it?
I suppose such basic thing like program parameters is handled by the
kernel procedures, and AFAIK various winbloze flavours are not fully
compatible...

Still, I'll be more than grateful if someone from the developers could
comment on that. If it has really been fixed in development releases after
1.0.6, I'd like to know what was the cause of the error.
