Tom, 

Thanks for prompt response. 

You may be right, but the source code argument is not very convincing. The fact that there is nothing in the source code does not mean that the compiled package could not pick up a piggyback virus. Or that it was, actually introduced by the infected compiler.
The older version that I used (couple of weeks ago, I can check) had no problem, though.
Please, advise,

Thanks again for the prompt response.

Alex.
