This patch http://www.winehq.com/hypermail/wine-cvs/2004/03/0434.html breaks the decompression system used by lots of microsoft software, a screenshot is attached. This breaks the installer of the word 97 viewer, and probably of all office viewers, and it may affect dcom and the installer of other Windows components or Microsoft software. This should be fixed before the next release. The CVS regression testing was done with the word viewer available at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=9bbb9e60-e4f3-436d-...

Tried to install on an updated (like 45 min old) CVS version to test it, seems to get in an endless loop here. Also tried to install the Excel97 viewer. That one works correctly.
I have Franks Winetools installed, used it to install all of the "Windows system files". I am using wine's own config file (not Frank's).
and it may affect dcom
DCOM98 seems to be working here, installed it quite recently too.
btw, what is the nature of the bug, does it generate corrupt files?
