Does anyone have 5.1.0 MSVC Binaries?

Before I go through the large task of compiling 5.1.0 (mainly obtaining and compiling its dependencies), I was wondering if anyone had MSVC 9 binaries of 5.1.0.

I'm not looking for the shader addon nor the the recording, and video addons. I just need the same addons as 5.0 I'm just looking to use the new functionality added to the core of Allegro in 5.1.

Thanks

Out of curiosity, which features do you use? OGG is a big one that requires additional support, but given that GDI+ handles all the images, I'd think that most of the dependencies aren't that important.

I use:
-PhysFS
-OGG
-FreeType
-Audio/Acodec
-DUMB

That is practically all of them. The only one I do not need is libPNG.

It is still a fair amount of work just for these though. I wish Michal Cichoń would release a 5.1.0 binary; I found his binaries extremely useful.
