           Summary: Installing DirectX breaks "gold" VB6 heavy application
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.0-rc3
          Platform: PC-x86-64
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: directx-ddraw
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: panton41 at gmail.com


Various games force the installation of DirectX, after this installation a VB6
heavy game utility titled GURPS Chracter Assistant fails to start.  The program
will display a splash screen and a window allowing datasets to be chosen, but
afterward crashing displaying an error traced to ole32.  The program requires
the use of native riched20 and oleaut32 and is a character creation utility for
a tabletop roleplaying game titled GURPS from Steve Jackson Games.

Clearing the error currently requires erasing the Windows directory, rebuilding
it, replacing the native DLLs and reinstalling the utility.

I do not have a back trace to send yet, however I will reproduce the error and
upload it once I am able.
