New subject: [Bug 17570] Can't build/install DPK files in Delphi 7.

Summary: Can't build/install DPK files in Delphi 7.
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.16
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org
        ReportedBy: jeff@storago.com
When I am running Delphi 7 Professional under Wine 1.1.16, and I try to compile
and install a .dpk (Package) file, Compile says "[Fatal Error] Could not create
output file '(path_name_here)\Whatever.bpl'" although upon inspection a .bpl
file has been created.
If I try to go to "Component -> Install Packages" and check the box next to the
package, Delphi says "Can't load package (path_name_here)\Whatever.bpl. Module
not found." and won't actually let me activate it.
If I delete out the files that have been compiled and try, it seemed possible
at first to get a single package to install, but once I saved my project and
re-open it later, it says it can't find it.  Any project that requires more
than one dpk file to be installed is therefore completely unable to be compiled
because of this.
It feels to me as though Delphi is failing on some sort of file_exists() check
which aught to be very simple.  I've checked all file permissions and even
tried reconfiguring the BPL library paths to use folders without spaces i.e. 
"C:\Bpl"  instead of "C:\Program Files\Borland\Delphi 7\Projects\Bpl"   I'm
quite familiar with Delphi's package system and can install packages without a
problem on a similar Windows machine or virtual machine, this problem seems
exclusive to wine.
