Hello,

--- quote ---
I think this bug can be closed - the deshrinking works fine with the deshinker
program that is attached, and if it makes sense the attached patch could be
integrated into the wine sources.  I'm quite happy with either.  If someone
disagrees we can reopen the bug I guess?

Well people expect shrinked apps and games to work *out of the box*.
Do you really think most people are that tech savvy to search bugzilla/appdb
for deshrinker "howto"? I don't think so.
People get easily distracted if they need to make additional steps to "fix"
something wine isn't capable to do (e.g. download "deshrinker" tool from
obscure location and decompress application binaries).

If such software works in Windows - even if it's totally brain damaged - wine
should make it work too (if technically possible).

Regards
