Mike H. suggested hacking in CSIDL_PROGRAMS to see if that got us further, so:

And sure enough, it gets further.  Now it seems to fail with the same
error box that the Astrum installer demo
http://www.thraexsoftware.com/download/aiw.exe
fails with.

My WINEDEBUG-fu is no match for this.  I can never keep all
those damn channels and modes and plusses and dashes straight.
I'll just go back to hacking on crosstool until Mike has
another clever hint :-)
