Hey,
Sorry I didn't mean any offence caused. It's just I saw that the new wine release is going to fix bugs and tried to bring it to your attention.
I saw the guy Will Tipton in that bug ticket provided a detailed analysis of the problem so it looked easy since you already would know the problem (or at least a lot less difficult).
Not only that but it has 9 votes and is a widely wanted asked for feature if you check google,

I didn't mean to be making people upset, it was more a helpful suggestion. Maybe caused by english language being not my first.

Otherwise, you'll have to wait for someone to come by, find this interesting and then fix it.  There is a part of the project that is paid, and they work for a company called CodeWeavers.  Maybe they have found a fix and incorporated it into their product line.  That you'll have to pay for.
