"MS Shell Dlg" mapping to "Microsoft Sans Serif" (a TrueType font) was
introduced in win2k (I think), pervious versions of Windows has it mapped
to "MS Sans Serif" (a bitmap font). Wine has a replacement for "MS Sans Serif"
unfortunately recent Huw's patch broke usage of "MS Sans Serif" as a fallback
font, see bug 8983, bug 9995.

In general, introducing a font substitution to a font not existing in Wine
is a bad idea. If you revert the Huw's patch that has caused a regression in
the bugs above does it make things look better?
