Yes, seems so. But the Snapshot (GTK) is 020917

The 020918 build is up now (and the missing dance.wav can be downloaded
separately).

I think the build date is inserted during compilation. And a US night
snapshot is compiled in Europe one day (well, half a day) later. That
explains the Sep 18th in the about.

You don't need gdbm.dll if you only use Øystein's builds.
I use gdbm.1.8.0. Øystein's builds go with libgdm-2.dll (included in his
Install Archive).

And I think Øystein compiled without sound. That would explain 'no sound?'.
The 'help set sound' gives:
"No help available"
