In theory that file should be in the new setup zip now, even though it
is true that these files do not get updated under windows (one cannot
"selfupdate" binaries under windows, so updating should become a
two-step process).

It shouldn't be, but I have no idea what exactly/what else was going wrong.

Just a question: are these two files related to Windows 7 and absent
on Windows XP? Do we need to add them to minimals then?

I cannot comment too much about the rest; my only question at the
moment is: do we need to add the two DLL files for non-windows7 users?
I added Akira to CC since he probably knows the requirements better
than I do (and I have no XP at hand).
