Hmm.  On one machine, it still crashes the same way.
The appdb claims, with wine-0.9.32, that the app
will install if you replace its Java with a fresh one,
but that failed for me.

Happily, I found a good workaround.

The installer turns out to be a cab archive,
so you can just cabextract it, and run the inner installer
with the commandline option -? to get InstallAnywhere
options (cf. 
http://www.acresso.com/webdocuments/PDF/IA_runtime_command-line_arguments.pdf)
In particular, the option 
  -i console
avoids trying to use directx at all, and lets the
installer get a lot further.  I didn't get to finish testing.
