That's sounds quite similiar to the .NET application I use wine mainly for. It requires native mshtml and shdocvw to work with MS.NET (wine's built-in mshtml/shdocvw causes native gdiplus to fail), and uses Gecko with mono; and on start-up, it also renders a web-page sub-window. My font problem starting with wine 1.1.28 is with Gecko/mono.

I'll give LC_ALL=C a try. wine 1.1.29 shows a different error, but switching to Vista-shipped tahoma*.ttf or removing them altogether (thus using platform font) also make the application continue.

What's the commit/sha1 for the fix you found (if it were posted)?
