Evil.  /bin/sh is supposed to be at the same version of bash, if you installed 
things correctly.  It sounds like your postinstall scripts did not run 
correctly (perhaps you had bash or sh open when you ran setup.exe?).  What are 
the timestamps on those files ('ls -l /bin/{ba,}sh')?

At any rate, the fix is to rerun the postinstall scripts, or more 
quickly, 'cp /bin/bash /bin/sh'.
