Is this with the latest development snapshot? If not, please try with
that, a lot has changed in that area lately.
Also, what happens when w32-get-true-file-attributes is set to t? Is
the behavior closer to the default value or to nil?

OK. If you don't already have GDB for Windows, please install it
from here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/MinGW/Extension/gdb/GDB-7.5/
(If you are not an experienced MinGW user, you might be better off
installing GDB with mingw-get utility, which is mentioned on the above
page, because mingw-get will automatically install any dependencies
needed by GDB.)
Once GDB is installed, please follow these steps:
. Invoke Emacs
. Use the Task Manager or some equivalent to find out the process ID
of emacs.exe (not of runemacs.exe!), which is a number. Since you
say the startup takes minutes, it shouldn't be a problem to do
this and the next step while Emacs is still stuck in whatever it's
doing at this stage.
. Type from the cmd prompt "gdb -p PID" where PID is the process ID
of emacs.exe, and hit Enter. GDB will attach to the running
Emacs, stop it wherever it is, and show its prompt "(gdb)".
. Type at GDB's prompt "thread apply all backtrace", and post here
everything that GDB reports in response.
. If you can, try these steps both before and after the welcome
screen comes up, because it's possible that there's more than one
place that is holding the startup.
Thanks.
