Well, I don't have any ole enabled trace to see the sequence of inits and
uninits. I just saw CoInitializeSecurity() stub call, and checked that Wine
stub succeeds unconditionally, while it fails on Windows witn CO_E_UNITIALIZED
in this case. My wild guess was that if noone initialized COM in this thread
before and this function will fail with the same error as on Windows instead of
succeeding it may trigger some different path in the application. In any case a
log might be helpful, so much discussions in this bug report and not a single
relevant log :)
