Ah, no, this is just a pdf generated from a (pretty old?) CVS-Snapshot
of the Gforth sources.  (Note: since then development switched to git).

Good question.

I'm also waiting for it.  But just using Git HEAD or a snapshot is not
as bad as it sounds.  I'm almost exclusively using the development
version myself.  Note that there was recently an ABI-CODE regression, so
if you go with Git, go with the latest version.

You could install Cygwin and build your version from source.  I almost
don't use windows, I hope there are more qualified people around to help
with or provide a build (try asking on the Gforth mailing list).

cheers,

David
