Ideally, the GoldED+ project would have used SMBLIB directly from the 
Synchronet source repo. That's not how it was implemented, instead the SMBLIB 
code was copied/forked - so it doesn't benefit from any upstream changes 
(enhancements or bug fixes). Using SMBLIB as a static library built from the 
Synchronet source repo would be the right solution and fix more than one issue 
with GoldEd+ interoperability and Synchronet Message Bases (SMB).
