I think what you've provided previously and with the description above is
pretty complete now.  The problem is I can't reproduce it (tried 10 times
in a row from the Windows console) and it's apparently not a real common
issue as yours is the first report we've seen.  Here's some other
suggestions for you to try to see if it helps you avoid the issue you're
seeing:

   1. Try running vim from mintty instead of the Windows console.
   2. Try upgrading to the latest vim (a new one was just released).
   3. Try running 'rebase-trigger all' and then re-running 'setup.exe'.  See
      if that changes the vim behavior.
