Don't think so. I just tested a WoW64 install, and got that exact behavior.

I thought there already was a bug filed for Office/WoW64 issues, but I can't
find one, so confirming this one.

Console output includes the following:

err:ole:COMPOBJ_DllList_Add couldn't load in-process dll L"C:\Program Files
(x86)\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE11\msxml5.dll"

even though that file is installed in that location.

Setting severity to minor as there's an easy workaround (install to a 32 bit
wineprefix).
