Sorry about the confusion...
- I do not know if wineboot handles RunOnceEx\Setup, I have no need for any such programs anymore. IE uses its own utility for this.
- Wineboot does not register the DLLs, because Steam gave "Could not connect ..." errors without the RSA Encryption dll from IE6 registered. (rsabase.dll)
- If wineboot handles the executables in RunOnceEx, it does not delete them. After running wineboot 10+ times after installing IE6, an entry for "grpconv.exe -o" was still listed in a RunOnceEx key.
- I would not mind writing a patch, but I am unfamiliar with winelib, but could probably work on it bit by bit.
Apparently, while I may have been a bit lazy, I was at least ordered.
The comments at the begining clearly state RunOnceEx, and clearly state it is not currently implemented.
The soonest I'll have time to look into it is in a month from now. You are most welcome to have a go at it. Winelib should not frighten you in that respect - it's quite simply Win32 programming done on Linux (or whatever OS you are running). The sources for wineboot are all in the one file (programs/wineboot/wineboot.c under the wine source tree).
Feel free to ask questions if you have them. If you don't touch that, I'll try to get it done when I have the time.
As for RunOnceEx\Setup, I wouldn't touch that if I were you. It's not part of wineboot, as far as I know. As you have correctly said, IE installs a special program to handle that. SetupAPI has some method of triggering it to run, but I have never been able to do that outside of INF processing. I think we currently have it working "well enough", and should let leave it at that.
