Angus, what about a configure.bat script?
Perhaps it can also solve the problem that the configure script is not
launched in 137pre5 at installation time (I also have this problem).
Here is the one I use. It extracts the \path_prefix from configure to
properly set up the path before calling sh.exe configure.
Please, manually join the lines ending with \ to the line following them.
I had to resort to break them this way as the gmane interface does not let
me post lines longer than 80 chars.
