I'll probably leave it as this. It would be nice if this worked without such a
workaround, but because this is an ancient driver that doesn't run on any
modern Linux distro fixing this would mean a lot of setup effort on my side.

The bug should remain open though until Nouveau is able to run this. I'll
probably be annoyed with having it on my regression list essentially unfixable
in a few months though.

One question is if this driver is generally broken with Wine (since this is a
function that runs for every app that uses DirectDraw or Direct3D) or if it is
broken because the application does something weird (e.g. put the FPU into a
non-standard state). If it's the former the bug is of some priority. Do you
have any other Windows application you can try? What happens if you run make
test in dlls/ddraw/tests? (I'd expect lots of tests to fail; the question is if
they even start running)
