-------Windows/x86 & Windows/x86_64 Verison 5.32-------

Known Bugs: We don't have the same checkpoint logic as the linux apps, as Windows doesn't support process signals. We are working on a true solution. Right now, checkpoints will occur every 5 minutes.

Having "leave apps in memory while suspended" caused the app to hang in 1 trial (out of 4, on the same box). I'm looking into it. Similarly, in certain cases, the sieve app did not always get properly closed when boinc was being closed.

Bugs Fixed: Problems associated with the 5.31 release - including no progress reporting, some app suspension handling, etc. Fixes handling of 1000T+ WU properly. Note: this is the first windows app to include sr2sieve. We will be putting out a new set of optimized sieve apps, catered to different architectures. This is the athlon-tuned, SSE2-enabled (when CPU has it) edition.

A true 64 bit client is coming - I have to get mingw running 64-bit first.

Report bugs & problems here, as usual.
