I'm confused by this:

This particular bisect output is just a version tag, meaning that no real code was changed (and so cannot have made your problem appear). All the "good" bisects you've set tells GIT that all that code is good, until wine-x.x.xx . GIT eliminates all that code except for the version tag, which would be the latest revision before the next version tag.
