--- Comment #4 from Olivier F. R. Dierick <o.dierick at piezo-forte.be> ---
The issue is also present in a fresh 32-bit Wine I just made.

How do I install Steam:

Make a fresh wine prefix with winecfg.
Set dlloverrides for gameoverlayrenderer and dwrite, both to disable.
Install corefonts with winetricks.
Make directory Program Files/Steam and copy Steam.exe from a previous Wine
installation to it (using Program Files (x86)/Steam when installing into a
64-bit prefix).
Run wine Steam.exe -no-dwrite from the Steam directory.
Steam updates and start.

This bug is probably a duplicate of bug 38493, because the issue is resolved by
patching Wine with the same patch.
