Inno setup 6 broke javapacker/jpackage

Although we plan to remove dependency on Inno Setup in the future, if 
that is not done soon after initial integration we can fix this in 
WinExeBundler.java by handling this case.  I will add line item to one 
of the post integration fix CR's to do this.

Thanks.
