Hello folks,

Windows XP Professional x64 Edition uses 64-bit Windows Server 2003 Kernel
hence it will report VersionNT64 == 502.

32-bit Windows XP: VersionNT = 501
64-bit Windows XP Professional: VersionNT64 = 502

32-bit Windows Server 2003: VersionNT = 502
64-bit Windows Server 2003: VersionNT64 = 502

Also briefly discussed in bug 33391 which fixed proper setting of VersionNT64
msi property.

Setting VersionNT64 = 502 in 64-bit "Windows XP" WINEPREFIX would confuse/break
installers/apps.

What's the problem of using WinVer == Windows 2003 for 64-bit .NET recipe?

At one point Wine's default Winver will be Vista/Win7 anyway so why the hassle
and potentially break stuff for 64-bit .NET installer?

Regards
