In some cases, yes. That is, it isn't necessarily Wine that's crashing here,
but the application itself. Wine will refuse to create DXT/S3TC textures if
those are not supported by the driver, but applications won't necessarily
respond well to that, since in practice DXT/S3TC textures are always supported
on Windows. There isn't a lot we can do to make that better.

Not even the "s2tc" implementation? As far as I'm aware that one doesn't have
known patent issues.
