Thanks Sascha!

So far we had 40 users with vcredist_x86.exe install problem. All Windows 7 but 
not only 64 bit. It is interesting, but not yet enlightening to me, how some 
issues got solved. Quite a few users run vcredist_x86.exe manually, with full 
UI. Normally it is run silently by our setup chainer. Several users could 
install after following a rather strange suggestion that I found googling: make 
user the owner of Components Registry hive.

We define _USE_RTM_VERSION when compiling all custom actions (well,
our lone CA) and include the following MS merge modules ... haven't
come across any issues to date with many thousands of customers...
although we might just be lucky ;)
