The workaround
wine AngryBirds*.exe /extract
is simply great - thanks a lot. 

It works so far with all angry birds games for windows in respect of wine
1.5-1.7, Ubuntu 12.04 LTS 64bit:

- AngryBirdsInstaller_3.3.3.exe
- AngryBirdsRioInstaller_1.7.1.exe
- AngryBirdsSeasonsInstaller_3.3.0.exe
- AngryBirdsSpaceInstaller_1.6.0.exe
- BadPiggiesInstaller_1.3.0.exe
- AngryBirdsStarWarsInstaller_1.3.0.exe
- AngryBirdsStarWarsIIInstaller_1.0.0.exe

The installer changed some time ago. 
As long as it installs into "C:\\Program Files
(x86)\\Rovio\\*" chances are high that installation will work without hasle in
wine 1.5, 1.6 & 1.7 with Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.
If the installer uses instead 
"C:\\Program Files\\Rovio Entertainment Ltd.\\*" as target directory one will
need above workaround method.

Automatic update is broken at the same time as automatic installation, download
works but update stops at certain point then. Same symptoms as with
installation.
Update can be done manually with above workaround.
There is strong evidence that both is at least partly linked to differences in
handling small & large letters in directory names between Linux & Windows.
