You wouldn't happen to have a Unix/Linux machine to try this stuff out 
on, would you?  You get better output there - telling you exactly what 
the prereq failure is.

Meanwhile, take a look at the generated build.bat.  Search for exactly 
the PREQ FAILURE message (eek! - the unix scripts also don't have this 
typo!).  The next line(s) will be of the form "IF NOT EXIST...".  These 
are the file(s) that Gump is looking for.  If there is something wrong 
in these names, then you might want to take a look at your workspace.
