Installing MS Visual C# 2005 Express Edition on a Gentoo Linux systems works 
only so far that Ixpvcs.exe extracts all files into a temporary directory. The 
installer itself never shows up and the following messages are printed on the 
console:

Visual Studio 8\Common7\Packages\Debugger\1031\vsdebugui.dll")
