I must be terribly thick headed...
Here's what I did:
Started with a folder called:
JMeter2.5.1
This contains the full (and functional) installation of JMeter 2.5.1. When I
launch the 'bin/jmeter.bat' file from this folder, it works fine. The only
modification to this folder is the 'bin/user.properties'.
I copied the JMeter2.5.1 folder to JMeter2.5.1Dev. I ran the jmeter.bat file
from this folder - it works fine.
Then I extracted the 'apache-jmeter-r1202266_bin.zip' file, and copied the
".jar" files from the "lib" folder to the 'JMeter2.5.1Dev/lib' folder.
I copied the "lib/etx/*.jar" files to the 'JMeter2.5.1Dev/lib/ext' folder.
I copied the "lib/junit/test.jar" file to the 'JMeter2.5.1Dev/lib/junit'
folder.
I copied the "bin/*" files (not the "bin/examples" folder) to the
'JMeter2.5.1Dev/bin' folder.
When I launch the 'bin/jmeter.bat' file, I get the following error:
An error occurred: org/apache/commons/jexl2/JexlContext
errorlevel=1
Press any key to continue . . .
(Of course, when I press a key, the cmd.exe window goes away.)
I have only the JRE installed - it is possible that I need the full JDK in
order to get this working?

You need to unpack the _bin and _lib archives into the same directory
structure.
There should be only a couple of duplicate text files at the top level.
