Problem Compiling Wireshark under Win32

I've developed a dissector plugin under Linux, and now need to deploy it on Windows machines. I started trying to setup 
my environment on a Windows XP VM but when I get to step 
2.2.7.<http://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsdg_html/#ChToolsWin32Verify>, I get a couple of errors.

I had a "vcredist_x86.exe is missing" error which I fixed by download vcredist_x86.exe and putting it in 
C:\wireshark-win32-libs, however I now get another error:

tools/win32-setup.sh: line 10: sed: command not found
tools/win32-setup.sh: line 12: exec: --: invalid option
exec: usage: exec [-cl] [-a name] file [redirection ...]
tools/win32-setup.sh: line 10: sed: command not found
tools/win32-setup.sh: line 12: exec: --: invalid option
exec: usage: exec [-cl] [-a name] file [redirection ...]
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'c:\cygwin\bin\bash.EXE' : return code '0x2'
Stop.

I noticed that the documentation says I should try nmake -f Makefile.nmake setup but that didn't help. I just get the 
same error message. The documentation and the wiki seem to disagree about what to do, which just confuses things. Any 
solution or ideas?

Thanks,
Ben
