#193 AllowRootDirInstall not installing?

Using the latest beta version (also checked with the
current cvs), I find that with
AllowRootDirInstall true
specified that one can choose, for example, D:\ as
the target installation directory, but the installation
fails. I have this in my script:
Section " " Whatever
SetOutPath "$INSTDIR"
File /a /r "C:\some_dir"
SectionEnd
If instead of D:\ I choose D:\Temp as the installation
directory, then things get installed properly under
D:\Temp\some_dir.

    Thanks, will be fixed. For now, use:

    CreateDirectory $INSTDIR
    StrCpy $OUTDIR $INSTDIR

    Fixed in latest CVS version, thanks.

    There is no compiled version in CVS yet.
