As of Wine 1.1.32, the problem regarding black boxes no longer appears if (and
only if) gdiplus is installed via winetricks or another method, ie. grabbing
gdiplus.dll from a previous Windows install and copying it to the wine
/windows/system32/ directory.

However, there is a new problem that has developed as a result of this, and it
is potentially as bad as the previous (possibly in relation to the previous,
therefore my posting it under this bug):

While loading Rainmeter under wine within an X terminal for output purposes,
the following is displayed:

fixme:gdiplus:GdipCreateHICONFromBitmap 

This is displayed every second or so, and each time it displays the shadow for
the Rainmeter skin, while normal w/ the rest of the desktop on it's initial
load, gradually becomes darker and darker as this message displays in the
terminal. Eventually, after ten or fifteen seconds, the shadow is so dark it's
practically an eyesore by comparison.

Thus, to answer your question as to whether or not it's an issue: transparency
is fixed, shadow is not, both are in relation to gdiplus. Do I need to post a
new bug as a result of this?
