Sure I know that quite well ... at work we just upgrated from perl 
5.003(1997) to perl 5.005 (1999).  With wine there has yet to be a stable 
version so I don't have much of a choice.  Anyway I did go back to the 
062901 wine that ran SA8.0 great on the old laptop and the problem on the 
new laptop.

Opps ... I will have to reinstall wine.  I think I stripped the 
binaries...Doh

Fair enough.  I will try getting output from the debugger so we can see 
that bad X11 call.

Thanks for the input.
