There is a way to play WoW without compiling your own wine version or using a
patch.
I've downloaded and installed Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable
Package:

After installing login to WoW works fine without installing winetricks (which
got that fixed in package vcrun2005) or using a patch.

I found that hint in the WoW forums:
