    Until Windows XP/ME, one universal installation layout worked, but Vista
    broke it. We designed installation file layout specific to Vista,
    Installer just wanted to know whether target machine is Vista or
not and switch layout.
    (see http://languagegame.org:8080/Korakurider/2)

    Checking file layout itself?  Maybe I don't understand your
proposal correctly...
