It's on my list of things to do, particularly now that newer setup.exe
seems to be more prevalent. I just haven't uploaded a version of bash
that does it yet (partly because I've been playing with what else bash
should be fixed to do for 1.7.0, but I guess this change can be made even
for the 1.5.25 timeframe).
