Okay, finally some real success.
The problem is really in xlive.dll, there's a stubbed out version of it
available from the GTAIV modding community which helps GTAIV to proceed much
further, it's available here: 
http://public.sannybuilder.com/GTA4/xliveless-0.93.rar

It includes sources and binaries, that could potentially be used to create a
native wine wrapper for xlive.dll, since the native dll is unlikely to work in
the foreseeable future.

Once the dll is used we're getting into DirectX problems, eventually an error,
"TEXP70: Unable to create depth render target - Please re-install DirectX
and/or install the latest video card driver." will be displayed.

Note, I've installed the following components via winetricks: vcrun2005sp1
msxml3 wmp9 gecko winxp. I have a patch to change the default service pack
level under WinXP mode to 3.0 which should help here.
