Confirmed.

When symlinking drive_c to a directory within the /home mount (a seperate Ext3
formatted disk) there is no problem. Only when symlinking to JFS.

Commands used:

<working state from here>
vortex at vortex-desktop:~/.wine$ mv drive_c drive_c_good                
vortex at vortex-desktop:~/.wine$ ln -s drive_c_good drive_c
vortex at vortex-desktop:~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Winamp$ padsp wine
winamp.exe
<works!>

vortex at vortex-desktop:~/.wine$ rm drive_c
vortex at vortex-desktop:~/.wine$ ln -s /jfs/winecur/drive_c
vortex at vortex-desktop:~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Winamp$ padsp wine
winamp.exe
err:module:attach_process_dlls "NSCRT.dll" failed to initialize, aborting
err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization for L"C:\\Program
Files\\Winamp\\winamp.exe" failed, status c0000005
<doesn't work anymore>

This might not be a bug in wine, but perhaps in JFS or the way JFS is
integrated into Ubuntu 8.10.
