I was testing the win32 installers on a win98 machine this morning and ended up running the demo with the unicode build without realizing it at first. It turns out that the crashes and other problems that I remember with the unicode build on win9x did not happen! So perhaps we'll be able to eventually not distribute ansi builds after all.
If somebody feels like doign more in-depth testing of the unicode build on win98/Me please do and let me know how it goes.

That is how I have been shipping BitPim since September last year (I
do include unicows as well).
Is there some sort of version that is supposed to be broken?
The last time I thoroughly tested the unicode version on win98 (a few years ago probably) there were several problems when running the demo. Using the TaskbarIcon would cause a crash, there were several events that were not captured and turned into wx events (like in the tree listing the demo items) etc.
I hadn't noticed any check-ins specifically targeted at fixing MSLU issues so I just figured that nothing had changed.
