[Bug 12838] Spiceworks IT Desktop: Wine corrupts bitmap files during extraction from installer

This problem is still present in today's GIT.

The bug here comes down to the way Wine's ini handling functions handle NULL
(0x00) bytes within data that comes before the first section in files being
read in as ini files. Windows reads in this data incuding the NULL bytes and
writes it back out the same way while Wine treats them as the end of a string
resulting in the output file being corrupted.

I noticed James Hawkins started working on profile.c which is where the ini
processing functions reside. I added him as a CC to this bug. Perhaps he will
be able to help out with addressing it.
