Right but this is only happening on Vista.  I don't know
what subtle problem is happening but we installed on
a mix of 5 XP and Vista computers following the same
instructions.  XP's were OK.  Vista's all gave the same error.

Looks like the MinGW tools depend on something that
can't happen on Vista.

Yep.  Once I realized that was the only solution we had
found, we gave up on Vista.  That is a totally unacceptable
solution.
