terminal output (with native msvcrt.dll)

I can confirm, the issue still exists in wine-1.3.15-296-g3dc7ffb. The game
starts but shows only a black screen.
This seems to be the same problem that afflicts Syberia (bug #21796); both
games are from the same developer.

Someone posted a workaround for Syberia on the AppDB page of the game, which
works in the case of Postmortem, too:
After you started the game and got the black screen, in another terminal launch
the taskmanager: wine taskmgr. It will bring up a window showing Postmortem.exe
in it. Select the game and choose <Switch to>. The game will appear on the
screen sound and safe.
Minor annoyance is that the task manager icon is always visible on the screen
during gameplay.

The demo shows the same problem for me (requires native msvcrt.dll):
