Comment (by mttp):

 Erinn informs me that she also has an alternate fix for this issue at
 https://gitweb.torproject.org/erinn/tor.git/blobdiff/e6590efaa77c8cf186ce92e6ebad175e9c6450d1..d7cfeafac21c1b7f1641aa432146643bbc6e4c29:/contrib
 /tor-mingw.nsi.in

 Erinn's fix also addresses #7956, which makes it extra nice. Once it gets
 rebased, it seems like a superior solution to the one I provided.
