Ooops.
Well, that assert is a sort of debugging assertion to be sure to catch apps
which call this function. It wasn't meant to go into the winehq tree, I
missed it when doing my cleanup checks :-(
Anyway, that call is pretty much untested, I don't expect it to work
as-is(especially if the app sets a surface memory pointer).
You can send the patch to remove that assert to wine-patches, it's clearly
wrong. I'm just downloading the demo to test it myself, but I'm quite busy at
university right now :-(
