The installer bails out, see
https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=51160 (and bugreport
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38319 that is resolved as
duplicate of #41369)

For Paint.net 4.0 (i.r.c) the stub dll was enough to let the installer
succeed; from Paint.net 4.1 on it let`s the installer proceed far
enough to run into nice d2d bugs ;)

Regards Louis
