  Because it's not part of the default installation; you need to specifically
select it in the package chooser page of setup.exe.

  The default installation is deliberately quite minimal, enough to get
running and the basic commmand-line tools, but not so much as to make it
difficult for people who are trying to install over a dial-up link.


    cheers,
