Need to retrieve VS_VERSION_INFO for 16, 32, 64 bit windows binaries

[Kapil Arora]

Hi,
I've created a small executable on windows which calls
GetFileVersionInfo() and VerQueryValue() to extract VS_VERSION_INFO
from various windows binary files. I want to use this utility under
wine on linux system. Everything works fine for most of the files but
for some older dlls I'm not getting correct version information.
In the wine sources I found some of the functions for previous (16-
bit) version info extraction to be stubs.
I tried replacing version.dll in $HOME/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32
with the one on my windows XP box but nothing happens. I still don't
get complete information.
Is there a way to achieve this.
Thanks,
Kapil.

After you copy the Windows XP version.dll, set a DLL override for it
in winecfg as well.

Where are these stubs in Wine?
