vcrun2008 fails to install properly when used over win7 prefix

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
======================================
1. WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.new-prefix" winetricks win7
2. WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.new-prefix" winetricks vcrun2008

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
=====================================================
Expected output should'n contain error messages from winetricks complaining 
about installation failure. Real output I get is like this:

vcrun2008 install completed, but installed file 
/home/$HOME/.new-prefix/dosdevices/c:/windows/winsxs/x86_Microsoft.VC90.MFC_1fc8
b3b9a1e18e3b_9.0.30729.6161_x-ww_028bc148/mfc90.dll not found

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
====================================================================
Self-built LFS-like RPM distro based on Fedora 14-16 sources.
32bit PAE Linux kernel 3.1.0
wine 1.5.5
winetricks 20120308

Please provide any additional information below.
================================================
mfc90.dll actually gets installed, but to another folder named
"x86_microsoft.vc90.mfc_1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b_9.0.30729.6161_none_deadbeef" and not 
"x86_Microsoft.VC90.MFC_1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b_9.0.30729.6161_x-ww_028bc148". This 
issue is pretty similar (next to duplicate) to issue 169.

Is 'winetricks winxp vcrun2005 win7' an acceptable workaround?

Actually it seems that no workaround is needed as the application I test with 
(it is Diablo III which requires native msvcr90.dll to run) starts up without 
problems. It seems that it is winetricks message to be bogus.

I could still test it the workaround above is a viable solution on your request 
but I doubt it really is as target install folders are different for different 
emulated windows versions and chances are that there are some apps which could 
rely on this.

I think I checked in a fix in r823.  Can you try current svn?

Confirming fixed in r823. 

P.S. Hadn't tested for winxp yet, hope this change hadn't broke it.
