I'm not sure if Valgrind would attribute that to Wine for copying the uninitialized variable's value or to the game for using what Wine gave it.  I _think_ Valgrind would blame Wine in that case.  Since it's blaming the game, I lean toward the bug being in the game.

I've just sent a message to someone in the game company, not sure if
they care :)
