git.exe, for example, hence, at least all builtins.

Why should this not work? The diffutils package I mentioned is from MinGW.

Anyway, I think we should not link against libiconv*.dll at all because it 
slows down the startup too much.

Well, I did not reboot, or log out and in again. I just opened a CMD after the 
installation was complete. Usually, CMD picks up new PATHs if they have been 
modified via the Settings->System->Advanced (or whatsitcalled) tool. So, I 
thought it would be the same with installations.
