Thanks for the reply. I don't remember ever seeing those messages, I'm
trying to make it easier to reproduce here. What I have always
randomly experienced is other error (which also have a bug I can't
remember) and it is something like wine_kernel_boot: timeout, or
wine_kernel_init or something like that.

I'll wait for your patches them, after restarting the computer the
error seems to be happening less so I believe it is related to the
amount of memory used.
