Satanic Verses sayeth:  "The Codepage Summary property must be set
before any string properties are set in the summary information.", but
so far as I can tell, PID_CODEPAGE is never used in msilib.__init__.py,
etal.

Confirming evidence: msilib's GetProperty(msilib.PID_CODEPAGE) raises
"Not Implemented" on Python2.5.1's own .msi file.
