I've got some new information on this problem. After trying many new wine
versions (including 1.2 release candidates) I gave up on solving the issue.
However, I was happy to see that in openSUSE 11.3 32-bit (one release after the
one with the issue, and not x86_64 like before) the problem didn't exist when I
made a fresh install. So I had been happily using Continuum for 2 weeks, until
yesterday, when the problem suddenly came back.

Based on the timing, and what the dated rpm installation list gave me,
upgrading to one of these packages from the version that comes with 11.3 causes
the issue:
unscd-0.45-6.1.1
libpanel-applet-2-0-2.30.0-5.1.1
release-notes-openSUSE-11.3.6-0.1.1
postfix-2.7.1-2.1.1
udisks-1.0.1-2.1.1
yast2-gtk-2.21.68-0.1.1
gnome-panel-2.30.0-5.1.1

Obviously some of those packages should be benign, but some of them look
somewhat suspicious. In any case, I hope someone can reproduce this--I was able
to reproduce this issue with another fresh install on the same computer
(install, install Continuum, play Continuum just fine, apply these same
updates, Continuum crashes as described in the original post.) However on
another computer with 11.3 these updates didn't break Continuum, so there must
be something more to this.

Based on what I've learned, I'm updating the issue to not apply to a specific
version of wine, and no specific platform. As far as I know only openSUSE has
this issue, so if someone would update the issue name to include openSUSE in
the title that'd be helpful.
