WINEDEBUG=+tid,+wbemprox,+seh wine-staging 4.11 terminal output

Hello,

Using a workaround to bypass bug 47421, I can start the game and login, but
after character selection, the game tries to connect to the 'world server' and
opens an error dialog instead and terminates.

There is no indication of the issue in the normal terminal output, but the
error dialog and log files in the game directory says:

--- error dialog quote ---
General protection fault!

Script call stack:
    Function APBUserInterface.cUIDataStore_Chat|OnPlayerProfileChanged
--- end error dialog quote ---

Searching the web for that function I found a trace of a topic on the
developer's forum about that issue. That website is down, there is no cached
version on google and no copy of that page on the web archive, but some google
query trick gave me an indication that the issue might be related to wbem:
https://www.google.be/search?q=repository+site%3Aforums-old.gamersfirst.com%2Ftopic%2F406507-general-protection-fault%2F

--- google quote ---
Anybody who gets this problem should check and if neccessary reset the
Repository, located at C:\Windows\System32\wbem\repository.
--- end google quote ---

I attached a WINEDEBUG=+tid,+wbemprox,+seh terminal output in case it is
helpful in any way.

The issue happens with both Steam and GamersFirst versions, with and without
wine-staging.

My wineprefix is 64-bit. I didn't test with a 32-bit wineprefix.

Regards.
