Gary,

While looking at your changes I noticed you changed two lines in the vbs script.

One is that you added my repository/branch in a comment. That's ok and makes it easier for others to start.

The second is to install msys-patch. Is there a reason you do this in the vbs script and not in install-impl.sh ?

Hi Geert.
The reason I added in msys-patch to my version of your script is so that the instructions I posted on the wiki would work, since they tell you to run your vbs script and then run patch against the 2.6 repo with my patchfile, and that doesn't work if you don't yet have patch installed.

Of course, as and when there's a git repo with the patches already incorporated, that step is no longer needed and nor is patch. But it doesn't do much harm to leave it around, and would make it easier for people who have to play catch-up the next time a downstream dependency gets broken.
