So, to sum it up in my own words:

What WINE does:

- During PROFILE_Load, the complete ini-file is parsed to an internal
structure.
- the entry is added to the internal structure
- During PROFILE_Save, the complete ini-file is rewritten from scratch
according to the internal structure.

That means in this case, a number of entries are dropped as WINE couldn't parse
them when loading. Also, they might get modified (removing unnecessary spaces).

What Windows seems to do:

- look for the entry in the file, ignoring everything else
- update or append the entry
- leave the rest as is

Correct? Hmm, that would need a bit of effort then :(
