Update: The installer uses windows environment variables to fill in 
Path strings in gEDA config files. These strings contain "\". So we 
can't easily replace characters.
It looks like the code that interpretes the config file replaces "/" 
by "//". Subsequently, the recursive search fails. I'll see, if the 
installer can somehow preprocess the paths to contain slashes rather 
than backslashes.
