            Bug ID: 39706
           Summary: Gazillionaire refuses to start
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.8-rc2

      Distribution: ---

Trying to reproduce bug 34308, I found out that Gazillionaire fails to start in
current Wine. It shows an error saying "Failed to open graphics server. GSW.EXE
must be available via the DOS path".

This is a regression caused by:

    user.exe: Release the Win16 lock due to loading 32-bit dlls in
CreateWindow.

The app calls WinExec("GSW.EXE"), but because the Win16 lock is released upon
CreateWindow, it doesn't wait for GSW.EXE to have initialized its window
correctly. Before the change, the lock would be held until the first GetMessage
call.
