OK, thanks for checking that.  I'm going to remove my commit and the regression
tag.  The only role my commit had was to properly determine the amount of VRAM.
 As you've determined, if the proper size had been set via the registry, the
crash would have happened even before my commit.

Probably, this is a game bug and it just can't deal with the high amount of
VRAM.  The log shows it's in a loop of checking formats.  I'm not sure why it
doesn't crash when logging.  That may indicate another game bug with an
uninitialized variable such that Wine doing different things (like logging)
leaves different leftover data in the game's variable and causes it to change
behavior.  It's also possible the logging just slowed it down and it would have
eventually run out of memory and crashed given enough time (and disk space for
the log).

It is possible that this is a bug in Wine (ddraw or wined3d), but I doubt it.
