Here's the problem.  If you look at tools/win32-setup.sh you'll see that it requires sed.  Easily fixed by using 
cygwin's setup facility and installing sed.  Also, for what it's worth, I came across a similar kind of problem 
recently in which I ultimately discovered that the problem was that I had recently installed WinARM (ARM processor 
tools for Windows) and because of where it was in the path, win-setup.sh was attempting to use the mkdir facility in 
that toolchain (which would seem to work but not actually create a directory!).  I found that pretty quickly by using 
"which mkdir" at the Windows command line and then manually altering the path.
