gpg 1.0.7 MingW32

[David R. Bergstein]

Ben,

I am glad to hear that the patches I posted helped you.  Credit for the HKP
keyserver patch actually belongs to Keith Ray (nullify.org); his original
PGP signatures were retained within that patch file.  The ws2_32 libraries
never worked for me either, that is why I linked the executable to wsock32
instead.

Maybe you can enlighten me as to the purpose of the files in the "po"
subdirectory.  One of our fellow users, Brad Tarver, on cc: encountered the
same issue you did with the missing makefile.

Regards,

- David
