setup.exe doesn't change that often; you can use the one you have.

I think the general advice is to always use the most current released
version of the DLL, so yes it's probably a good idea to upgrade to
1.5.14.  If you experience a problem you can always go back to .13 --
but be sure to write to the list with a detailed bug report if you do
find something that breaks in the current version that worked in
previous ones.  Otherwise it will not be fixed.
