The new version is slightly cleaned up and will build alongside icarus. I've tested it with a U2 and they run at the same time. I also fixed it to recognize bitshopper compacs, as that was a source of annoyance. I have yet to try to force a windows build.
nerver mind my previous post I found my answer.
Hopefully reposting the Linux version on the same page as the windows version will help.
maybe mentioning the changes on the 1st post (icarus + gekko +bitshopper support) would be helpful ?
