Does the ELPA package include packages not bundled with Emacs (Those marked
"C" in customize-variable org-modules)? Installing it didn't seem to make
the org-drill module available. As for the date problem, I guess it's
trying to use cmd as my default shell and generating the temporary batch
script automatically; I'll try to get that sorted out somehow.

Thanks,
Will
