I see what you're saying, but the prompt also has an install or cancel option, and it installs gecko under:

Code:
drive_c/windows/syswow64/gecko/1.0.0/wine_gecko




I'll perform the procedure from the wiki and see if that fixes it, but I think that if the prompt offers to install wine then it should fully work, or not offer to install at all.  That's really the main reason I made this thread, since it actually does install and function correctly, only it continues to nag every time wine updates.
