It builds a .msi file that installs on XP.
I just hard-coded what I though was the path to the octave.exe file to
use. This path (based on the build date) should probably be replaced
with a variable that is processed by sed as part of the build.
I added to the translations component all the files in the
dist/octave-2013-07-02-14-37/translations directory. This would
probably be easier to script with wixl-heat as I showed in an earlier
email.
