--- Comment #14 from Henri Verbeet <hverbeet at gmail.com> ---
I briefly looked into this while looking at bug 36334, and it looks like the
application just passes uninitialized stack data as DDSURFACEDESC2. It ignores
the return value. As far as I can tell the function making this Lock() call can
never work properly, since it seems pretty unlikely that the stack is supposed
to contain a valid dwSize value at the correct position. The function making
the call in question indeed appears to be part of the application's savegame
code, perhaps for creating a thumbnail. (Does anyone happen to know if those
work correctly on Windows? Even with the hack they're just black here.) My best
guess at this point is that the code in question is never supposed to execute,
although other options could be that the stack is supposed to somehow contain
valid dwSize or lpSurface values, or that native has a workaround for this
specific application.
