problem with native dll's.

[Dan Scott]

Yup, reverting your 04/13/2001 server patch enabled my no-Windows 
install of Notes/Wine to start working again.

With recent CVS versions of Wine, Notes 5.0.3 was dying with:

err:win32:fixup_imports No implementation for KERNEL32.dll.0() imported 
from C:\windows\system\netbios.dll, setting to 0xdeadbeef
err:win32:fixup_imports No implementation for KERNEL32.dll.0() imported 
from C:\windows\system\netbios.dll, setting to 0xdeadbeef
err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection Critical section 0x40a9bd90 wait 
timed out, retrying (60 sec) fs=021f

Reverting your 04/13 server patch lets Notes run happily (and is a good 
temporary means for working under Linux again, at least until the real 
reason Wine was dying is found).

Anyone have any tests they want me to run in my environment to try and 
track down the real cause of the problem (with the 04/13 server patch 
applied)?
