Stacking of in place OLE objects

I am seeing something similar/related: my app has a window with two child 
windows embedded (a toolbar and an IE object).
The paint problem I see is that the IE control is not drawing an area equal 
to the height of the toolbar (see attached picture)
On Windows, the parent window receives just a single WM_PAINT, with 
clipping area (0,0,300,300), while under Wine it receives *two* messages, 
one with clipping (0,0,300,300), the second with (0,24,300,300) (where 24 
is the height of the toolbar)

After digging in the painting code, I have a doubt: maybe the second 
WM_PAINT was intended to be sent to the IE control, not to the parent 
window (and the clipping would be the right one)...
