Yes, we know it still exists.  Unfortunately this isnt a simple problem to
workaround in the wine sources.  The elder developers have had a look at this
bug, and have determined it to be due to bugs in the Xorg X server..  They have
contacted the developers of X and are working on a fix, but in the meantime,
your best bet is to roll your X install back (if possible) to Xorg 6.8.1..  That
worked for me, and I am having no problems.  I should highly advised you that if
you do that though, you could be potentially exposing yourself to attack, due to
the bugs that were fixed in 6.8.2, and that is a risk that I am willing to take
only because my linux box is not something essential....

For now, resolving as later..
