A little call for testing:

There has been a bug for a while in the 2.23 series, happening only
on Windows, which would result in sporadic crashes with return code
-1073741819. See https://gitlab.com/lilypond/lilypond/-/issues/6361
if you are interested in further information.

In this release, the frequency at which the bug occurs seems much reduced,
although it can still be triggered under very specific circumstances
with Scheme code if you really try hard.

If you are on Windows, we encourage you to test this release on any
scores you might have, especially larger scores. If you encounter
any trouble, please get back to us on the bug-lilypond list
(bug-lilypond@gnu.org). If this bug still occurs under real-world
conditions, we would like to know it.

Thank you.
