Here is a build of the current github head:
https://github.com/downloads/celeron55/minetest/minetest-0.4.dev-20111209-1-win32.zip
More specifically, commit e06d4555bf9d179b25bbd207cb6e7416ca05f137.
We (the 0.4 core development “team” of two) are having a small break from developing 0.4 to not make our heads explode and to allow us to do stuff that the society values like work and study.
Yes, Developing Minetest is not sleep, work or study. Sadly it is completely unnecessary if you ask your landlord, grocery store, employer or professor. 8)
Thought this might be useful information for some. Check back in a week or two (or three) and github will probably be again flooding with commits.
EDIT: Apparently the break is taking a bit longer; there has been *some* progress though; just slow and not public.

Aand some notes to the early modders:
The global node/tool/item names in the default mod have been modified to follow the proper naming convention. For example the stone now is now called “default:stone”.
Also the digprop_* functions are now called minetest.digprop_*.
Don’t remember more right now but will add here if something comes up.

Aand some notes to the early modders:
The global registration naming convention was changed from “modname_*” to “modname:*”. Sorry for the inconvenience, but this is for the better in the long run.
Also, inventorycube() was moved to minetest.inventorycube().

For those already testing the mod system: This version enforces sane global namespace usage and you will need to modify your existing stuff: http://celeron.55.lt/~celeron55/minetest/wiki/doku.php?id=code:lua_api&#api_reference
-- Naming convention for registered textual names
-- ----------------------------------------------
-- "modname_<whatever>"
--
-- This is to prevent conflicting names from corrupting maps and is
-- enforced by the mod loader.
--
-- Example: mod "experimental", ideal item/node/entity name "tnt":
-- -> the name should be "experimental_tnt".
--
-- Enforcement can be overridden by prefixing the name with ":". This can
-- be used for overriding the registrations of some other mod.
--
-- Default mod uses ":" for maintaining backwards compatibility.
