I used the old version 4.0 license code for my first attempt, and
win4lin installer stored the code in /temp.  I forgot to delete this
file when I was using the new installer and so it was bypassing the part
of the installation that asks for license code, which is also how it
determines available and supported kernels.  

Once I deleted the file, the new installer and correct license code
(imagine that) worked fine.
