In wine-1.3.27-357-gac0a7b6 several, if not all MSI-based application installer
crash (usually at the end of installation). The problem can be reproduced by
downloading and installing the Steam client (it has a reasonable download size,
1.5 MB).

This is due to the following commit:

ac0a7b644fa464fa640e06a6e26b2191b5a29a92 is the first bad commit
