To the bug reporter: could you please try ntfs-3g mounting with the 'exec'
option and without the dmask, fmask, uid and gid options? I'm quite sure you
have found a wine bug. NTFS is a POSIX file system and people don't have
crashes when using it (except VMware which doesn't check the return value of an
mmap systemcall). 

On the other hand, we have found real problems in the following softwares which
originally were thought to be ntfs-3g one (very partial list): SELinux (several
times), ALSA, partition managers, MBR, grub, qtparted, gparted, Windows NTFS
driver, CVS, getcwd, gnulib, samba, activesync, vmware, nautilus (several
times), LTP, dbench, ntfsmount, wifi/nvidia drivers, rdiff-backup, chkdsk,
metalog, firefox (several times), file managers, drag-srp, network-manager
(unmount/mount), mdadm --create, captive-ntfs, amarok, amarokcollectionscanner,
ext3.

Vitaliy: what functionality specifically do you need from ntfs-3g? Shared
writable mmap support indeed needs an extra kernel patch which is not in
mainline yet but we are not aware of any other widely needed feature. We're
developing ntfs-3g, so people can run application directly from NTFS using
wine.
