So I installed a second copy of Ubuntu in Virtualbox (identical set-up as in
comment number 8) and in this virtual Ubuntu I installed DPP according to the
suggested process on wine's website, with the whole updater-crashing and
cabextract-some-files procedure.  Indeed, in this setup, the program crashes
when I try to view the info box.

Comparing the Program Files/Canon/ directories from the working copy in Ubuntu
(created by copying over the files from a proper install in windows XP) and the
crashing version in the second copy of ubuntu yields:

diff -rq crash/ work/
Only in work/Canon/Digital Photo Professional: PspropSt.dll
Only in work/Canon/Digital Photo Professional: rcPropSt.dll
Files crash/Canon/Digital Photo Professional/Uninst.ini and work/Canon/Digital
Photo Professional/Uninst.ini differ

And, copying over both of these files (PspropSt.dll, rcPropSt.dll), (but not
just one or the other) into the crashing version causes things to work -i.e,
the bug is no longer present.

In other words, the installation procedure on wine's website, which circumvents
the "DPP Updater Crashing" bug, apparently fails to install these two files,
and leads to this bug.

So this "bug" would actually not exist if there was a fix for:

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16817

Or some other way of getting the installation process to install these two
files.
