    For those experiencing similar issues in the future:

    The nightly downloader (Win32) relies on the FILEVERSION
    structure embedded in AbiWord.exe to obtain what version one
    currently has. (This is the same resource that Windows
    uses to display information when you select properties;
    version tab.) However, this resource is only available
    in current development builds and will not be in a stable
    series until the upcoming 2.0 builds. While not recommended,
    I have updated it so if one uses its /force option, it
    will ignore the failure getting the current version and
    download the latest nightly build; this will allow those
    wanting to, the ability to update a stable build or corrupt
    build (or even no build).
