It looks like wbem  Win32_Processor.Name / Win32_Processor.Manufacturer 
are only available on i386 compatible systems. What about arm ? Is it 
possible to access both values from wineboot ? I'm not very familar with 
WBEM. Another possible solution would be to try harder to get the 
correct value in wineboot (maybe using the code from wbem) and let wbem 
read the value from the registry. This way there would be no code 
duplication.
