Description L M 2007-12-26 23:14:42 UTC 
OS: Windows 2000 sp 4+

Procedure:
Start with a machine that previously had gnucash-2.2.1-setup.exe installed and working (after fixing ORBit dll problem earlier).
Then delete the folders in the gnucash directory.
Install gnucash using the windows binary from gnucash-2.2.2-setup.exe downloaded from sourceforge mirror.
Allow installer to try and start gnucash.

Instead of gnucash starting, I get an error dialog.

Text of dialog box:
gnucash-bin.exe - Entry Point Not Found
The procedure entry point GetVolumePathNamesForVolumeNameW could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll.

I'm guessing that there's a misspelling, or incomplete function name, somewhere in gnucash.  Either that, or in some sort of library that gets called.  It might be in the ORBit library patch.

Workaround: use older version of gnome-vfs dll from gnucash version 2.2.1.
