The backtrace there is pretty useless.

With:
[Software\\Microsoft\\Windows NT\\CurrentVersion\\AeDebug] 1119019818
"Auto"="1"
"Debugger"="winedbg --auto %ld %ld"

in the registry Wine will call winedbg automatically on a crash and get
a Win32 aware backtrace.

It would already help to use wine-pthread instead of wine-preloader
for generating the backtrace. (Just replace it as traced binary.)
