[aida] errors using Sport-Files package on wndows

[Masashi UMEZAWA]

Hi Andreas,

Thanks for the patch. I've loaded it and confirmed it works well on Windows.
According to VW, I've applied the changes as Swazoo-extensions, not
Sport itself.

So the latest packages are:
http://mc.bioskop.fr/Swazoo/Swazoo-mu.4.mcz
http://mc.bioskop.fr/Sport/Sport-mu.2.mcz

I hope this packaging is successful.
