Wine terminal output

I'm trying to install a piece of software that seems to be an
autoexecutable MSI installer (if that's the correct term). When I run it
a small 'Setup' window pops up for about 30 seconds but the content
never gets painted. Then the installer quits and I get the msiexec usage
message. Software available from
http://xsens.com/Static/Documents/UserUpload/Xsupport/MTSDK_v3.0.2.exe.

The installer runs OK on native Windows and the previous version of the
same software (released in Feb 2007) installs OK in Wine.


Installation starts if I extract the .msi file with:
dd if=MTSDK_v3.0.2.exe of=MTSDK_v3.0.2.msi bs=512 skip=488
and then run 'wine msiexec /i MTSDK_v3.0.2.msi'. Note that this then fails for
other reasons [http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13054].

The .exe file can also be unpacked with cabextract but this doesn't help
install it.
