I have downloaded the source zip of beta.2 and built a povconsole64 
version of it in vs2015 community.
1) It crashes parsing my animation. The debugger only tells me heap 
corruption.  -- I will narrow that down to what.

2) It does parse and render the old leaktest that I posted to clipka 
last year.

____Installing your built povwin-3.7.1-beta.2____

1) Lots of path and shortcut references to "3.7-beta" in the installer. 
Should not those be "3.7.1-beta"?

2) It too crashes while parsing my animation. (That's actually a wee bit 
of a relief to me. ;) )

2a) It parses and renders "leaktest.ini"

3) It crashes parsing BorderChars. Download BorderChars 1.6 from 
p.b.scene-files and render Demo_Animation.pov
(I set his UseRadiosity = false)

3a) It either crashes or fails saying it can't find "colors.inc". (I saw 
this rarely on my console build, too).  I think with the heap corruption 
it gets confused and starts over.

The previous version that I used (successfully) is alpha-8615129.
