Of course, <a href="http://wiki.winehq.org/ReverseRegressionTesting">reverse
regression testing</a> (and all the pain that involves). I'll have a go at
that.

For anyone else who has a computer that is too fast to observe this bug, you
may be able to get away with throttling the CPU. On my laptop (Intel Core Duo
T2300  @ 1.66GHz), I can do this by running the following:

# x=3; echo ${x} > /proc/acpi/processor/CPU0/throttling; echo ${x} >
/proc/acpi/processor/CPU1/throttling

[You can reset the throttling by setting x=0 instead of x=3]

According to 'cat /proc/acpi/processor/CPU0/throttling', that command should
throttle the processors to 62% of their normal speed (YMMV), which seems to be
enough to result in noticeable slowdowns when moving the mouse while playing
the game.
