+msvcrt,+msgbox,+tid debug log

I can confirm the problem when starting Sinistar Unleashed (demo) with
Wine-1.3.17: a warning message is shown: SmartHeap Library: MEM_BAD_POINTER.  
The dialogue box contains the buttons <OK> and <Cancel>. Pressing on <OK>
repeats the same warning message over and over again.
In fact, after I pressed on <OK> cca. 50 times, the main menu appears but the
game is unresponsive.

Workaround: native msvcrt.dll (winetricks vcrun6): the warning messages have
gone away and the game starts fine (provided you have Glidewrapper installed;
the game needs that).

I attached a +msvcrt,+msgbox debug log (maybe it helps).

p.s: the demo linked in the url field didn't install for me (bad EXE format...)
I've used another version of the demo to reproduce the problem:
