They are reset, but they clash with the values set from another process.
And since the locale dependent font mapping in registry is prefix-global
you can't expect that once one app has changed a vital locale setting
another app won't break because of that.

If I recall correctly the Wine policy for patch acceptance didn't change
since then: the patches are welcome (they sometimes get ignored, but that's
a different problem).
