Question: Why is wine crashing on accessor.cab?

Answer: Because there is no such file as accessor.cab anywhere in the America's
Army distribution, so it never should have been extracted.

Here is my long-winded explanation.

I extracted americasarmy260_aafiles.exe to a directory on Windows. Then, I ran:
msiexec.exe /i "America's Army.msi" /qn /l*v verbose.log (/i means install; /qn
does a silent install; /l* means log all operations, v means verbose)

Notice this direct excerpt from the msiexec log:

...
MSI (s) (D0:C0): Executing op: SetTargetFolder(Folder=E:\Program Files\America's
Army\Sounds\)
MSI (s) (D0:C0): Executing op:
SetSourceFolder(Folder=1\PFiles\AMERIC~1\Sounds\|PFiles\America's Army\Sounds\)
MSI (s) (D0:C0): Executing op: ChangeMedia(,MediaPrompt=Please insert the disk:
,MediaCabinet=1\accessor.cab,BytesPerTick=32768,CopierType=1,,,SignatureRequired=0,,,IsFirstPhysicalMedia=1)
MSI (s) (D0:C0): Executing op: ChangeMedia(,MediaPrompt=Please insert the disk:
,MediaCabinet=1\Sounds.cab,BytesPerTick=32768,CopierType=1,,,SignatureRequired=0,,,IsFirstPhysicalMedia=1)
MSI (s) (D0:C0): Executing op:
FileCopy(SourceName=S-CAMP~1.UAX|S-CampMackall.uax,SourceCabKey=_61e3dded1a3a4144a69fd9c58d111a65,DestName=S-CampMackall.uax,Attributes=512,FileSize=107775276,PerTick=32768,,VerifyMedia=1,,,,,CheckCRC=0,Version=65535.0.0.0,,
InstallMode=58982400,HashOptions=0,HashPart1=-1051980800,HashPart2=905232706,HashPart3=1619355398,HashPart4=2142757465,)
MSI (s) (D0:C0): File: E:\Program Files\America's Army\Sounds\S-CampMackall.uax;
 To be installed;  No patch;  No existing file
MSI (s) (D0:C0): Source for file '_61e3dded1a3a4144a69fd9c58d111a65' is compressed
InstallFiles: Installing File: S-CampMackall.uax,  Directory: E:\Program
Files\America's Army\Sounds\,  Size: 107775276
...

I can upload the full log if anyone likes. Notice that MSI did a ChangeMedia to
accessor.cab then did *nothing whatsoever* then did another ChangeMedia to
Sounds.cab and started extracting it. There is no accessor.cab file. It should
correspond to Program Files\America's Army\Accessories but the only files in
there are ArcadeInstallFull203-google.exe, xfire_installer_17171.exe, and some
DirectX stuff, all of which are stored in *other* CAB files.
