Tom, I think about Wine state as of some collection of files
("~/.wine/drive_c/*") and registry entries.  You could try finding minimal
changes in files or registry, which stops Viewer crashing.  

At first I'd try to determine, which part of Wine state is crucial: registry,
drive_c files or both.  For that I would install Viewer and would make a backup
of registry (regedit /e BACKUP.reg) and BACKUP of actual files (cp -a
~/.wine/drive_c ~/.wine/drive_c_BACKUP). 

Then I'd reinstall Wine, install fresh copy of Viewer, import BACKUP.reg and
would see if crash is gone.  If not, I'd repeat all this, except restoring
registry - here would go file restoration.  If not again, then both parts carriy
crucial changes.

With crash gone I'd cut the restored part in a half (half of directories, half
of files in a single directory, half of a registry branches) and would restore
only one half of it.  And so on, until only crucial changes are left.
