In fact, attempting to install it irrecoverably breaks chicken-install, requiring a complete fresh reinstall of Chicken to get it working again. It appears that installing a dependency, check-errors, is the root of the issue. I've attached a screenshot of the offending error.

Hi and welcome back Dan,

I just tested with 5.4.0rc2, and it looks like this is fixed in the
upcoming release.  We did fix a few issues with chicken-install on
Windows (#1744 comes to mind, but that was 5.3.0 - maybe you tested with
5.2.0).

Could you please verify that it indeed works with 5.4.0rc2, and perhaps
check if you were on 5.2.0?

Cheers,
Peter
