What patch exactly are you talking about?  IMHO I haven't applied any
patch here in my sun box.

Thanks.  IMHO I am missing only last two ones related to wine:

I am afraid they won't help, but I will try installing them soon.

Yes, Wine says it needs an implementation of interlocked* functions for 
your CPU.  That is quite strange, as they seems to be implemented already:

s2 at austechia:/usr/src/wine-20040914$ grep -iA10 sun libs/port/interlocked.c
#elif defined(__sparc__) && defined(__sun__)

/*
 * As the earlier Sparc processors lack necessary atomic instructions,
 * I'm simply falling back to the library-provided _lwp_mutex routines
 * to ensure mutual exclusion in a way appropriate for the current
 * architecture.
 *
 * FIXME:  If we have the compare-and-swap instruction (Sparc v9 and above)
 *         we could use this to speed up the Interlocked operations ...
 */


Maybe some defines don't work?  I am going to simplify this c-file out to
find the inconsistence (during the next slice of my free time at this
machine).

BTW, what kernel version are you using?  Mine is 2.2.20.
