Hi

Bug 15887 has been closed on the grounds that it is a duplicate of this bug. 
Does that mean I am supposed to post further remarks under this bug ?

Here's my work around:  install Wine 1.0.0, install application, upgrade Wine
to 1.1.15 or whatever. Run application.

Does this work for anyone else ?  At least you don't have to patch the Wine
source and so you can at least ask for support.  Oh, and it works for other
regressions too.

Bug 15887 reported a regression.  This bug does not.  In comment #8 (bug
15887), Dan (Hi Dan) asked if his patch in comment #5 (this bug) helped.  I
replied no.  In comment #9 a helpful analysis of a problem in a different
application was provided.  I replied that it did not apply.  Yet still bug
15887 was closed on the grounds that it is a duplicate of this bug.

I have tried the patch suggested in commnent #5 with my application.  Again.

I am very happy for those folks for who the patch makes a difference but I
repeat: it does make any difference for the application for which bug 15887
reported a problem.

I was told to report bugs, describe symptoms but not to attempt analysis.  I
was told, if I suspected regression, to do a full regression.  These I did.

Neither the chap who provided the analysis nor the fellow whose patch may have
introduced the regression are in copy for this bug.  How does one move things
forward ?

Could someone attempt the same regression as I did on their application ? 
Perhaps that might help someone decide whether we have two issues with the same
symptoms or one issue with an analysis and a patch that don't address the root
cause.
