Yup, this was on purpose.

Um, you do mean "./configure; make" right?

sed is on the CD and should be installed with everything else.

sh.exe is from ash, not bash.  If you want to rebuild sh.exe, you need
to rebuild ash.  However, you may choose to copy bash.exe to sh.exe.
They both work, but ash is smaller and faster.  However, ash may not
need the bugfix you are applying.
