search path redux - if office 2007 always uses a private riched20, why does wine interpose its own global one?

See http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14980

Essentially, to run Office 2007, you have to set an override
for riched20.  Since Office installs a new, spiffier version
of riched20 in its own private directory, and expects to
find it there, isn't it a bug that we don't let it have it?

Sounds like it's time to write a conformance test...
sure would be nice if that override wasn't needed.
