The attached patch hacks^H^H^H^H^Hfixes this problem. Obviously, this

deep insight into this can come up with a better fix.

Of course the patch is wrong. How it can be that an .exe has no a valid PE
header but it seems to be a valid PE executable? You have to investigate
what that file is in reality.
I know that this patch stinks. But the .EXE is valid. It works under 
Win98. PE Explorer shows the information.
