It was back earlier in November, but I did package up the Outlook
addin at that point in time using installer (5b4) and it worked great.
I didn't bother putting finishing the step of putting it into an Inno
Setup installer, but the created distribution tree seemed to install
fine.  I'll try to re-verify with the latest CVS.

For a final build you do need to tweak the "drivexxxx" module
installer creates since by default it just does the registration and
not the additional step of inserting the registry key for the Outlook
addin that addin.py does, but that's about it.
