FYI:  A custom N6 build containing the CDautorun shell will install just fine 
(the core xpi files exist in a subdirectory named "Core\" in this scenario)

I believe this bug may have something to do with trying to read the readonly 
files from the root of the CDROM.

I think the patch needs one more approval (sr).  It currently just has an "r".

Sean has provided me with a debug setup.exe to verify his fix for this bug.  

I have tested Custom N6 CCK builds burned on CD media with the setup.exe and 
have determined that Sean's patch works on all Win32 O/S's.
