--- Comment #13 from Chatty <mail at chatty.de> ---
With joined efforts Alex Alabuzhev and I have tracked the issue further down.
>From build 5200 upwards they changed from gcc to VS2015, later VS2017. The
Microsoft compiler handles thread initialization differently in x64 leading to
the above described SEH.

One workaround is to compile Far x64 with gcc, then the original code work up
to the latest build (5356 at the moment).

Another workaround is to disable the window thread initialized in
wm_listener::Check() - just insert return as first instruction. According to
Alex it's not important on a Mac. Then Far x64 can be started also up to the
latest build but immediately an exception occurs also pointing at thread
initialization within MSVCRT. So back to workaround one.

To clarify: Far x64 (or any similar multithreaded app) compiled with VS201x
used with Mac-Wine is the only combination affected. Bug title should be
changed to "x64 multithreading compiled with VS201x raises SEH (example Far
x64)".
