My information was based on observation alone, but in my case it was as I
said:
- on the machines where the update arrived as an automatic update, it was
not executed immediately but saved in the %systemdir% directory and started
through a RunOnce entry at the next logon (I know I said reboot, but that
wasn't accurate).
- on the machines where I manually visited windows update, the tool was
executed automatically without logging on or rebooting, and the exe was
deleted after running.

Windows update did not report that it had installed any updates, it just
told me I needed to download them.
I had to go to Office Update, and (separately) to download and run the
update for Visual Studio.Net manually.
