Ah, thanks Stephen, this caught me up too. I can confirm that the
installer works on Windows 7 after logging out and in again. It's
probably worth mentioning this step somewhere on the project page.

Anyway, nice work, thanks to everyone involved!

Just a heads up: chicken won't be able to import anything as soon as it is
installed, due to the fact that new system environment variables get added.
Logging out (or restarting) is enough to fix it.

Thanks for the work. I never had the time to get Chicken working properly
on Win32.

Now, it seems that chicken-install's proxy handling code is not working
correctly. I fixed a minor issue with it years ago, but it needs to get
smarter.
