The wine_gecko download hangs when it is started by some programs other than iexplore. I have experienced this in many different versions of iTunes when accessing the help documentation. It also occurs in Framemaker 8 as documented in bug 9658.
The current workaround is to run 'wine iexplore http://winehq.org' which succeeds in downloading and installing wine_gecko.
I wanted to avoid logging this bug by changing the summary of bug 9658 to make it more generic but I couldn't find a way to change tho summary. Although this bug was logged after bug 9658, I think that bug 9658 is the duplicate because the behavior is not specific to Framemaker8. I apologize if this bug should not have been logged.

It turns out that if I cancel the paused download, restart iTunes and then start the download again, it finishes. Of course it then crashes iTunes, but that's another bug.
I think this bug is the same one I'm experiencing in TroopMaster (bug 8997). The symptoms are the same.
