Re: 1.7.6 snapshot: intermittent "CreateProcessW failed"

Actually that was a reference to C:/bin being a pointer to /usr/bin instead of
/bin
In normal installation it is that way plus /usr/bin as symlink to /bin
Not the other way around. (sh is in /bin, with your structure, no way it could
be reached through C:/bin )
