Yes. We have no 5.6 machines here, so I didn't want to release
binaries I couldn't test. Now you've reported that the 5.5 version
works on 5.6, I'll make a 5.6 version.

The executable has to play various tricks to find the .py files it
needs, so it tends not to work if you mess with the path too much.

Cheers,
