Output of wine with crashing Curse Client right after logging in

The Curse Client crashes since Curse.com enabled their premium
service(http://www.curse.com/articles/curse-en-news/462154.aspx). This is not a
regression in wine since it worked with exactly the same version(1.1.20) a few
hours ago. I also tested 1.1.14 and current git -> exactly the same.

Steps to reproduce: 
1. Create a Curse.com account
2. Download and install the Curse Client
3. Create a new folder(e.g "WoW"). Create a folder called "Interface" in it,
and another folder called "Addons" in the Interface folder. Create a new file,
write something in it, and copy it as "Wow.exe" and "Launcher.exe". This is
needed to make the Curse Client think you have World of Warcraft installed. The
Client does also crash if you have a real World of Warcraft installation.
4. Open the Curse Client, click Manage Games->Add Game. Set Label to something,
Type to "World of Warcraft" and Install Path to the fake Wow folder you just
created.
5. Watch it crashing. If you start it up again, you will notice that it'll
crash again right after logging in.

I guess this is caused by that new ad that is shown in the client itself since
the premium service was enabled. It is not shown if you haven't registered at
least one game in Curse Client. It will not crash if you haven't added a game.

I will also attach the output of wine, which strengthens this theory.
