Given the increasing number of VBScript issues that're popping up (even
if it's just due to increasing downloads by a broader user base),
perhaps the installer needs to test the VBScript engine before trying to
run a script that does real work?
Invoking a script that does nothing, or perhaps prints a short success
message, might help separate initdb and genuine runtime install issues
from vbscript issues. It'd also permit the installer to offer the advice
you (Dave) just offered to the user in an error dialog, possibly helping
some people fix their systems without further intervention.
Just an idea.
