No, I just guessed, based on what Java does with ZIP and JAR files :-)

Alas, the files in the cabinets have mangled 8.3 names (such as
"Micros~2.021"). Probably the CAB is prepared by the CAB Wizard
(http://tinyurl.com/mmdk) and intended for installation in a WinCE
environment, and Microsoft knows how to extract the references from the
files in it (but I'm not aware of where - or whether - that is
documented).
