We now know it's not that simple.  In fact I never arrived at
the end of the chain of things that needed to be added to the
2.4.5 distribution.  In the end I simply used 2.7.
 
But some changes to git-cl were necessary to run under
Windows, even with 2.7.  I'll document these more clearly 
tomorrow.
