If I understand this commit description correctly it _must_ fix the issue for
all use cases yet clearly it doesn't. I know nothing about Win32 API but I've
got a feeling something is going on that's not covered by this change and you,
Wine developers, can easily figure it out by looking at Wine debug log. I can
look at it for years and I won't understand anything.

And as a bug reporter and a person who wants to make Wine better I can only do
what I'm knowledgeable to do like post logs and screenshots ;-)
