Hard lockups like that are almost always caused by video driver
problems.  Nothing running in user space (wine, or any shared
library that it calls) should be able to hang the kernel, but
wine stresses the video drivers more than almost anything else
and so it turns up bugs that would not otherwise be noticed.

I doubt that copying a 32-bit shared library to where the system
expects to find a 64-bit shared library is doing you any good.
If you need 64-bit libGL.so, you need to install the correct
version of it for your distro.  (Ask them which package to use;
that's not a wine issue.)
