Just to make sure I created a setup.exe from the dist script and installed that which failed initially because it could not find the lib_boost_date.dll, these were in the lib directory but when I moved them to the bin directory Gnucash found the files and failed the same as from the build directory.

Darn. I knew about putting the libs in the wrong place but forgot to commit the fix. Done now.

Ah, Liberia and Iceland are places that have the good sense not to use daylight time so the registry entry has 0 values for the transition times, and I’m not handling that correctly on Win32. Should be a straightforward fix.
