--- Comment #1 from Sergio Gómez Del Real <sdelreal at codeweavers.com> ---
I don't think this is a bug in Wine; documentation explicitly says:

"The pipe server cannot create a pipe on another computer, so CreateNamedPipe
must use a period for the server name, as shown in the following example.

\\.\pipe\PipeName"

Documentation for CreateNamedPipe is also clear about the form being restricted
to "\\.\pipe\<pipename>":
