--- Comment #3 from A Wine user <RandomAccountName at mail.com> 2010-11-13 16:59:45 CST ---
If I understand correctly (and I wouldn't guarantee it) the difference after
that commit is now the PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE environment variable is set to
AMD64 instead of x86 for 64-bit prefixes. Changing the value to x86 in
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Environment makes the
installer work again.

According to this:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa384274%28VS.85%29.aspx

...this variable should be set to x86 on the 32-bit side of WoW64, while the
real processor architecture is relocated to the variable
PROCESSOR_ARCHITEW6432.
