Hello Mark,

--- quote ---
But isn't the real problem here that even when Wine is set to XP mode, a
program can open/call functions in api-ms-win-core-sysinfo-l1-2-1.dll, whereas
on a real Windows XP system that DLL is not available?

Since MS messed this up by referencing non-XP API with 'v140_xp' platform
profile, the app would simply fail on Windows XP but still run with Wine
1.7.44+.
Usually people report bugs because they want to get their apps/games working
with Wine.
You want to have Wine changed to behave exactly as Windows, preventing the app
to run on default Windows XP profile?
That's kind of unusual request :-)

Wine doesn't provide different sets of binaries per Windows version nor hides
API at runtime (with a few exceptions) to mimic API sets.
It's a design decision that usually works out well with the exception of some
brain damaged apps.

Regards
