Can you try changing line 62 of tools/win32-setup.sh from

               http_proxy=`regtool get [...]

to

               export http_proxy=`regtool get [...]

 
 
Great, that change fixes the problem, altough I applied it to line 47 since that's where http_proxy='... resides (at least in my version, 26329, of win32-setup.sh).
