Extracted binary:

--- snip ---
$ file msic19a.tmp 
msic19a.tmp: PE32+ executable (DLL) (GUI) x86-64, for MS Windows
--- snip ---

The problem is the installer expecting the custom action script/dll being
executed on 64-bit server side (64-bit binary).
This obviously can't work here because Wine executes the custom action on th e
client side which is a 32-bit process.

This bug is a dupe of already existing msi bugs (32-bit client with 64-bit msi
server taking over or separate custom action server for 64-bit).
