Try creating a file called defaults.sl in the jed lib directory that
contains:

   append_to_slang_load_path ("C:/msys/1.0/local/share/slsh");

The forward slashes should not cause problems, but if they do then use:

   append_to_slang_load_path ("C:\msys\1.0\local\share\slsh"R);

Note the use of the R suffix on the string.

This stems from the sys_chmod function in win32.c.  It is possible
that the function is broken.

What does:

    slsh> stat_file("/some/directory/that/exists");

produce (when run in slsh)?
