[Bug 17448] Impossible to insert an MPEG file in PowerPoint

I just tested a clean install of Powerpoint 2003 in 1.4-rc4, and was able to
insert and play an mpg file without installing WMP at all, though the video was
somewhat off-center. Inserting an avi file produces an error message if WMP is
not installed, but they insert and play fine here if it is installed. I don't
have any wmv files to test.

I had to install WMP10 rather than 9, because winetricks wmp9 gave a cryptic
error message.

It does need the required gsteamer codecs installed (IIRC, "bad" and "ugly").
