You are right.

After just installing wine(-development) version 1.9.16 I dived a little bit
into it and I found that "wine.inf" creats an link to "Shared Tools\\ MSInfo".
Then I commented out in wine.inf this line:

---
;; line #3316 (wine.inf.in from git. This creates wine.inf)
;;HKLM,Software\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Software\Microsoft\Shared
Tools\MSInfo,"SymbolicLinkValue",0x60000,"\Registry\Machine\Software\Microsoft\Software\Microsoft\Shared
Tools\MSInfo"
---

And than it works as expected.

The error is: it is linked to:
"\Registry\Machine\Software\Microsoft\Software\Microsoft\Shared Tools\MSInfo"
but had to be linked to
"\Registry\Machine\Software\Microsoft\Shared Tools\MSInfo"
(Too much 'Microsofts' and 'Software' :)

So I can prepare a patch and send it next days.
