ooinstall needs to be fixed to work on Windows (my understanding is

our interaction with the berkeleydb library), it would be advantageous
to mimic the original logic, like running ooinstall not

Perhaps we can fix just this part, by using an "#if WIN32" and
converting the paths to the short version before calling BerkelyDB?

My understanding is that we use "classic" paths (not starting with "\\?") whenever they are short enough, anyway. So the problem cannot be solved with an #if, but (short of abandoning berkeleydb) needs to be worked around by making sure the LO installation is in a location with a short path (so that the paths of any files within the installation that are handed to berkeleydb are also short).
