Tango: Out of Date Installation Instructions

I just set up a new (Windows) computer, after working with the same
DMD/Tango/DWin/DSSS installation for the last six or eight months. And
for the life of me, I can't get my code to compile on the new machine.
The Tango installation instructions seem to be somewhat out of date,
since they describe installing tango on top of an existing DMD
installation, while the tango distributions for DMD all include the
compiler and don't require a pre-existing DMD installation:
http://dsource.org/projects/tango/wiki/WindowsInstall
Anyhow, the particular error I'm getting when I try to compile my code
(using "dsss build") is this:
module FileConduit cannot read file 'tango\io\device\FileConduit.d'
This is my sc.ini file (unmodified from the tango install):
[Environment]
LIB="%@P%\..\lib"
DFLAGS="-I%@P%\..\import" -version=Tango -defaultlib=tango-base-dmd.lib
-debuglib=tango-base-dmd.lib -L+tango-user-dmd.lib
LINKCMD=%@P%\link.exe
Since it references the "tango-user-dmd.lib" file, I wonder why it even
needs to include the FileConduit.d source file. Why doesn't it just use
the lib?
Much appreciation to anyone who can help get me rolling again! And I'd
be happy to help rewrite the Tango installation instructions once I
understand the correct installation procedure.
