Larry, be sure you've deleted your entire COMPRESS folder before running a new setup. If you don't, strange things happen, including losing files as you are.

At the client site (using EXACTLY the same source files - I take them down there on a ZIP disk), these two files (and maybe others) do NOT get copied into the distribution tree. But in the SETUP32.STF file, these two files are expected to be there - the setup script tries to install them in the system (register them, I guess). And of course it fails, since they are not there.
