I have tried the patch, and it actually works! The installer works 
correctly past the problematic point and installs the RPG. This patch 
should be included in the CVS ASAP, because a whole class of installers 
(all InnoSetup installers) can get fixed by this, as well as many Delphi 
applications, and the IDA program that seems to be necessary for many 
Wine developers. This is not a enhancement, it is a bugfix, and as such 
it should be merged despite the code freeze.
