Turns out this is a fundamental difference between the handling of broadcast
messages between Windows and Linux. Personally I don't think we can fix this.
This would require a patch in the Linux kernel that has been proposed (and
rejected by the kernel devs) before. I've talked to a couple of kernel hackers
about this on LinuxConf.EU last year and while they said they were happy to
help out Wine in general, they were not going to break Linux for us.

Closing as WONTFIX.
