> Or was that the breakage caused by a HackShield update, not a change in Wine?

Wine hadn't updated between it working and it breaking. I think it was just the
HackShield update. AhnLab must've changed something that apparently broke
everything but wine stable. So it might still be regression? I mean it does
work in stable while not working in any other version I've tried (though that
hasn't been many yet.) Lowest Wine version I've tried so far was 1.1.14
(patched with some HackShield patch), which failed.

So I might try out the regression testing..I've never really done it before
though.

Also, just to mention. AhnLab says the error is caused by HackShield not
initializing properly. And a post on elitepvpers said that the common cause for
it on Windows is because this certain antivirus protects the kernal from being
hooked, so that it swats HackShield away, who subsequently complains of its
failed intrusion.

Anyone know what dll sources I should look in given this information? I mean,
if I could even just patch wine to feign success and get HackShield to load on
the latest version I'd be happy.
