Lwsn output from running under wine

Wine Version : wine64 --version
wine-1.5.25

(64 Bit version)

GCC Version : gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.6.2

Python Version : python --version
Python 2.7.3


Operating Systems Used:

cat /etc/redhat-release 
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.5 (Tikanga)

I have also tried on :

cat /etc/redhat-release 
CentOS release 5.5 (Final)


Program trying to run lwsn.exe (network render module part of Lightwave :
https://www.lightwave3d.com/ ). 30 Day trial available. 

Command used:

wine lwsn.exe -3 -cLWEXT11-64.CFG -d"z:\home\andy.thomas\Atticus"
Scenes\black.lws 1 1

Problem,

I compiled wine and setup lwsn.exe in accordance with this article:

http://lordtangent.blogspot.co.uk/2007/01/running-lightwave-screamernet-lwsn.html

Initially it worked fine when running from the command line. I then wrapped it
up in a batch script to be sent to our Linux cluster but got a Python error
message : 

Fatal Python error: buffer overflow in getpathp.c's joinpath()

I tried to execute interactively on the cluster and this worked fine but when
executed from a script it gives the above error. 

I launched a forum post (as I a haven't done much troubleshooting with wine) :

http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=18632

I have tried the recommendations but had no success.

I re-compiled wine with the above gcc compiler and a more up to date version of
Python but I can no longer execute on the command line. I now get the Python
error regardless of how I execute the command.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. If you need any further debugging please
let me know.
