Let me focus on the OSTC3 fixed setpoint issue.

Yes, I can reproduce the issue on Windows 4.6.4. I dive a (Kiss) mCCR 
and combining it with an OSTC3 (not sure what the exact difference 
between OCTC3 and 3+ is; I am using a Bluetooth version, so I assume 
3+,). As Steve, I run the OSTC3 in fixed setpoint mode. Recently, I 
fixed some issues related to the fixed setpoint use of the OSTC3 (which 
involves both Subsurface code, as well as libdivecomputer code). So, it 
it supposed to work, but I can confirm that it does not. That is: on 
Windows only, as it is working fine on Linux.

So, my question for Dirk: are you sure that the correct libdivecomputer 
code is packaged with the Windows version of 4.6.4? I cannot help 
thinking of the recent build issue we had related to that Shearwater 
buffer overrun problem.
