Thought about it, it works for the app just as well.

I choose this solution because:
1)I don't know what installed means. Means a 8087 is installed or that
an emulator is installed.
2)at least in case 11: the documentation is clear what should be
returned.
3)setting installed to 1 enables some assembly code, that could well be
the reason that it is now set to zero.

This was the original Changelog entry that introduced "installed" :

|        * dlls/win87em/emulate.c:
|        Andreas Mohr 
|        Several improvements.

Shall I make another patch?
