Actually, from Troy's description, there isn't any valid bug at all.
Troy claims that the msxml6 installer broke when using native msi.dll
but succeeded with Wine's msi implementation. Native msi tends to be
pretty useless and break when used on Wine, and there's no problem in
Wine, so a bug would be useless here.
