Those users are already accustomed to using
winetricks, so I should probably make 'winetricks gecko'
implement those steps.  Sadly, that means it will have to
use sudo, which is kind of ugly.

I'm sad that this change happened; it makes things harder for
me.  I can't figure out why gecko is needed for, say, cmd.

Why did you make that change?

For now I've reverted the change locally until I
implement the sudo-ized gecko verb.
