Hello,

So I tried the patch A.F. pointed to.  It doesn't apply cleanly today;
I'll attach a rediffed version.  But even with that patch,
the installer says msxml 6 failed to install.

Of course it doesn't apply/work anymore because James Hawkins is actively
working in this area, doing several code refactoring/rewrites/cleanups.
That's why I refrained from updating my patches in bugzilla for some time.
It would be pointless and short lived ... I and didn't want to hear "I already
have patch in pipeline for xxx".

If you're itchy and don't want to wait for new official patches you can use a
one liner which retrieves the requested installer properties from uninstall key
(certain installer properties get only stored in this place by wine's msi).
