I am been working with a new intern here to debug this issue and try to find
what is going on.

It is becoming clear that the issue is pretty deeply connected with wine's
urlmon and the fix is going to require overhauling how urlmon does
CreateURLMoniker or how the resulting moniker handles the
IInternetProtocolRoot::Start method.  

I doubt a proper fix will be even an option for 1.2.  There are a few places
that a hack could be put in to correct the behavior but i doubt even more that
that would make it into 1.2
