Recently some people have been having problems with the use of 
"errno" in the code, when building for/running on Windows.  The real 
problem here was that
1/ The code - in a few places - was incorrectly using "errno" instead 
of calling "UsageEnvironment::getErrno()", and
2/ The Windows implementation of "BasicUsageEnvironment::getErrno()" 
was testing the "errno" variable, instead of always just calling 
"WSAGetLastError()".

I have installed a new version (2009.04.20) of the "LIVE555 Streaming 
Media" code that fixes this problem.  (If anyone finds any problems 
with this release, please let us know (on this mailing list) ASAP.)
