Win crashes on save

["Roberto Viviani" <roberto.viviani@medizin.uni-ulm.de>]

I have been experiencing a protracted series of crashes on the Windows32
port of PDP when I attempted to save my work at the project level. After
several fruitless attempts to isolate the condition when this happens, it
now appears that a crash occurs each time an existing project is opened and
saved (that is, it does not matter what I do in between). In most cases, the
project is saved anyway in a recover file. Yet the abnormality of this
behaviour is so apparent, that I thought the maintainers of this list might
wish to know about it.

This is the transcription of the standard and error output:

Using standard pre-compiled defaults file
bash.exe: warning: could not find /tmp, please create!
sh: /bin/rm: No such file or directory
CompressOutput: could not open file: ../../<dir_name>/<file_name>
PDP++ saving recover file(s) and exiting from signal: broken pipe
bash.exe: warning: could not find /tmp, please create!
sh: /bin/rm: No such file or directory

>From the transcript, it seems that the executable attempts to use rm from
the shell, which is not installed by the Setup.exe thing and is missing.
However, I do not know enough about PDP to know if this is the case.
