Don't run/build as root. Root permission is only needed to run make install,
and you don't have to install it to test (optional, but not needed, as you can
run wine from the build directory).

That one wasn't your fault ;-). Seems dlls/user was renamed to dlls/user32.
I'll attach a patch in a moment, you can either tell it manually to patch the
correct file, or use the patch I'll attach shortly.

The patch fixed behavior for some apps, but not others. Win32 API is a
disastrous mess, and fixing some bugs often causes others. However, in this
case, the patch has seemed to cause more problems than it solved, and probably
should be reverted.(In reply to comment #18)(In reply to comment #18)
