The following problems were known by the developers at the time of this release:

• IOCs running on some versions of Cygwin may display warnings at iocInit about duplicate EPICS CA Address list entries. These warnings might be due to a bug in Cygwin; they are benign and can be ignored.
• 64-bit Windows builds of the CAS library may not work with some compilers. The code in src/legacy/gdd is incompatible with the LLP64 model that Windows uses for its 64-bit ABI.
