No, he means forget about msys.bat altogether:

  Microsoft Windows [Version 6.0.6002]

  C:\Local\PortableApps\MsysPortable> bin\sh --login -i

  keith@localhost ~
  $ pwd -W
  C:/Local/PortableApps/MsysPortable/home/keith

  keith@localhost ~
  $

This is on Vista 32-bit.  IIRC, if you are on 64-bit, you MUST run
this under SysWOW64.
