See comment#2. More than three years have passed, so most likely there have
been changes either in Wine or the (surprisingly actively maintained) game
client that make the GLSL path work, or the test environment is different. The
patch posted here has also been rebased since.

If software vertex blending is deprecated now, and there are no well
substantiated objections, I'm fine with wontfixing this.
