OK, I understand: misexec is in fact a shell script that calls the wine
executable. So,

  msiexec /i wine_gecko-2.21-x86_64.msi

is the same as: 

  wine msiexec /i wine_gecko-2.21-x86_64.msi

whatever the architecture.

So in a WoW64 architecture, this calls 32 bits wine and not 64 bits wine.

If I do:

 wine64 msiexec /i wine_gecko-2.21-x86_64.msi

then the gecko files are correctly installed in c:\windows\system32

IMHO, the msixec shell should detect the current architecture and call the wine
or wine64 executable appropriately.

Thanks,
RB
