The debugger could not find a font that it could use.  This is another 
aspect of a bug I filed

http://bugs.winehq.com/show_bug.cgi?id=745

The way to get around this is as follows

set the default "desktop" = "640x480" in  ~/.wine/config
run wcmd and click on the wine icon for wcmd this should bring up a menu 
with one option being default.  Clicking on default will bring up a 
tabbed window. Clicking on the font tab will present you with the font 
options. I choose "clean"  size 8.  as this works best for me.

After seting the font in wcmd you can test it out in winedbg.  The 
reason for doing it this way is that  winedbg and wcmd both use 
wineconsole  and share the registry settings.  There is a bug in winedbg 
 that does not allow you to select a decent font so seting the font in 
wcmd is the current workaround.

You may want to experiment with this a bit untill you get it the way you 
want. If you have some additional insights about this you may want to 
add them to the bug report.
