Yep, copying just that one file made things get a lot further!
After futzing around for half an hour, I finally convinced our
app to install.  There appear to be a lot of rough edges
here; I had to turn on ole logging and run just the extracted
setup.exe (not the package-for-the-web wrapper) to get
things to work, and even then, I had to move the big background
window around, etc.  Also, if things failed for any reason,
I had to kill leftover wine processes, or the next run would fail.
Still, this is progress!

I'd like to help get wine to the point where it can run
this stuff cleanly.  I suppose the inability to run the
package-for-the-web wrapper is the worst problem... I'll
try to track that down and provide more details.

Thanks!
