Thanks Corinna, I suppose I'll try to reinstall.  Is there an easy way to see a list of packages I've installed on top of the default install, so that I can install all those same packages?

FYI, each time I run setup-x86.exe I get the same behavior.  Here is a snippet of a follow-on session from setup.log (notice the 7 min stall at autorebase.bat):

Thank you,

I don't know what happened, but the above looks like a broken installation.  cp, rm, mkdir are part of coreutils and this should always be installed.  Maybe the easiest way out is an installation from scratch and to copy only your local changes and home dir over afterwards.
