Make sure you're trying this in a clean ~/.wine.

I don't see anything about hal in that log...

The other method is to edit wine.inf. It's included with your wine
package. Most likely, in /usr/share/wine/wine.inf. There's a section
of fake dlls:

[RegisterDllsSection]
;;some dlls have to be registered first
11,,ole32.dll,1
11,,oleaut32.dll,1
11,,shell32.dll,1

11,,actxprxy.dll,1
11,,amstream.dll,1
...

add:
11,hal.dll,1

In the appropriate spot. Then, try in a clean ~/.wine.
