Re: Bug in Windows Installer (1.4.0.3)

   I just installed Scala 1.4.0.4 in another windows machine and got
the same problem. I used the automatic installer, added
%SCALA_HOME%\bin to the path, I can get scalac -version to print the
correct version, but when I try to compile anything I get the same
errors. This is the third windows installation I do, all with the same
problem. I noticed the solution looking in gmane for the list
archives, when someone else complained about the same problem. I
thought it could be some installation option, but there are none, you
just press "Next" when asked.

   In all machines I tested the SO was Windows XP Brazilian Portuguese
edition (with and without SP2), with JDK 1.5 Update 06. Installed
scala to the %PROGRAM_FILES% directory.
