>Description:
During install in install-sh the following commands are issued:

	dsttmp=$dstdir/#inst.$$#

# Move or copy the file name to the temp name

	$doit $instcmd $src $dsttmp &&

# and set any options; do chmod last to preserve setuid bits

# If any of these fail, we abort the whole thing.  If we want to
# ignore errors from any of these, just make sure not to ignore
# errors from the above "$doit $instcmd $src $dsttmp" command.

	if [ x"$chowncmd" != x ]; then $doit $chowncmd $dsttmp; else true;fi &&
	if [ x"$chgrpcmd" != x ]; then $doit $chgrpcmd $dsttmp; else true;fi &&
	if [ x"$stripcmd" != x ]; then $doit $stripcmd $dsttmp; else true;fi &&
	if [ x"$chmodcmd" != x ]; then $doit $chmodcmd $dsttmp; else true;fi &&

[1] The object file: '/../<objdir>/fastjar/jar.exe' is moved to: '/usr/local/bin/jar/jar.#<processID>#.exe', renaming done by dsttmp.

[2] Subsequently $chmodcmd fails when '/../jar.#<processID># is not found.

and:

[1] The install fails when '/usr/local/bin/jar' does not exist.
>How-To-Repeat:
configure --enable-threads=win32
make bootstrap
make install
>Fix:
workaround:

[1] Create directory '/usr/local/bin/jar'.
[2] Copy /../fastjar/jar.exe to /usr/local/bin/jar/jar
[3] Delete directory /usr/local/bin when done.
[4] If the assignment of the problem to 'install-sh' is incorrect, the workaround works.
