Solved it.
Staden for Windows apparently has a problem with spaces in the file
path. I got suspicious when I saw that it created a file c:\program,
so I uninstalled it, reinstalled it in c:\staden (rather than
c:\program files\staden package) and now it works.
Possibly it gets confused by WinXP's version of the NTFS file system.
I've sent a bug report to Staden admin.
