help! latest cvs build of wine crashes every time

[Graham Stoney]

Hi winers,

I've built the latest cvs version of wine on my Debian stable system, and it
crashes every time I run it. Here's an example:

greyham at fred:/tmp$ wine notepad
wine: Unhandled exception, starting debugger...
wine: Unhandled exception, starting debugger...
wine: Unhandled exception, starting debugger...
(messages continue indefinitely; the debugger never gets started)

It appears to be dying in X11DRV_CreateDC at the call to wine_tsx11_lock; but
I suspect this is due to a stack frame corruption. Here's a gdb backtrace at
the point of failure:

121         wine_tsx11_lock();

Other apps fair as badly; always crashing on startup. I'm running XF86 version
4.2; there must be something about my system that is triggering the failure;
otherwise you guys would be hitting it all the time. Any hints where I should
start looking?

Thanks,
Graham
