For the record, it looks as Wine is crashing for me because someone defined
some new registry entries, and the code assumes that those entries are always
going to be there. Given time, I can probably find the exact new keys in
question. However, this now leaves me with a problem: how to update my registry
while keeping all my settings and game state, because updating Wine by using
"yum update" certainly doesn't touch the .reg files in the .wine directory. (It
looks as if the app installed an entry in system.reg that told it where the CD
was mounted, and then refused to run if this entry was not present. Adding this
entry to a "fresh" wineprefix avoided the crash.)

So when you say "The bug is fixed/closed", you *really* mean that it is closed
only for that small percentage of users who will install the app from scratch,
and that everyone else can go hang.
