Careful on the version numbers here.

bash-3.0-7 works, but has prompt display bugs because it links against
libreadline6-5.0-2.
bash-3.0-8 works, is the current version, and includes a static readline
library.
bash-3.0-9 does not exist yet, but will soon be present to link against
the experimental libreadline6-5.0-3.

coreutils-5.3.0-7 works, but has bugs with .exe magic on virtual directories.
coreutils-5.3.0-8 was dead on arrival, and was pulled from the mirrors
immediately after that was discovered.
coreutils-5.3.0-9 is the current version.

ANY installation that doesn't have /bin/sh probably had problems running
the bash postinstall script, so the easiest solution is to use setup.exe
to reinstall the latest version of bash.
