This is due to a "feature" of the new Vista security model. To work 
around it, go to the following bug report entitled "/bin/install and 
/bin/install-info fail on Vista":

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1711379&group_id=2435&atid=102435

Go to the "Attached files" section of this page and place the manifest 
files on the MSYS "bin" directory.
