A simple examination of Windows' msiexec.exe with any PE-analyzer out  
there reveals that the type is set to Win32 GUI (and not Win32 CUI).
And if you try to start msiexec.exe in Windows, without any  
parameters/keys, you'll get a GUI messagebox with possible key  
combinations, etc. Definately not a console with help.

I guess Wine would need this changed too.


WBR,
