Actually, isn't the bold "Postinstall script errors" heading just
above sufficient for that? Only two lines of text fit below it, ...

... which I guess is why you suggested that? On second thoughts,
though, I think it does need to go above the errors because it's more
likely to be read there.

It now also tweaks the bottom coordinate of the results text box,
because I found it ran into the line above the Back/Next/Cancel
buttons.
