Hi Karl,
I'm very glad that Hartmut is testing TeX Live so carefully. For
TL-2007, for instance, I uploaded binaries for x86_64-linux.  They
didn't work for Hartmut because I had Xorg and he had XFree.  We
quickly decided to replace my binaries by his ones, otherwise TeX Live
would have been completely unusable for people running "Debian Stale".

I'm glad that Hartmut is testing everything and especially that he is
testing the installer (though he has svn).

Regards,
  Reinhard

Microsoft isn't the answer. Microsoft is the question, and the answer is NO.
