Hello,
I tried out the compiled version on Windows 7 32 bit. It worked fine in general,
but there were some rendering issues with Odia (Oriya) language specifically. 
These have been apparently solved in the latest git. Can this corrected version
be compiled for Windows 7 32 bit? Or can you please give instructions on how to
apply the patches to the already compiled installer?
Regards,
Nikhil
