Believe me, I test the release candidate/release compilers I upload
intensively on different OSes, machines etc. with different tests :)
(besides the fact that we've nightly win64 regression test runs).
This is also why I personally refuse to create more and different
installers: I prefer a few well tested installers (on average to create
and test one release (candidate) installer takes me one evening) instead
of a lot quickly slapped together installers pretending to cover all
needs but being actually broken.
