Well I guess that's the one that does need the IE installed. There are
lots of programmes that relay on some functionality provided by IE.
Doesn't matter if they really need it or not.

BTW is there are some particular reason that you have to cc every
single bug that you file to wine-devel mailing as well? I'm sorry, but
quality of those bugs are not that good really to go directly to
wine-devel list. With this particular bug you could at least try to find
what is that program looks at to decide if you do have IE installed or
not.
