Please don’t get me wrong, there is no same glitch on Windows I could reproduce
if to run the game normally. There are special means how you can trigger that
behaviour on Windows and I described that details for an indication that the
mentioned use after free is unlikely originates from some Wine code or
triggered by some Wine code. Looks like it works on Windows (without forcing
the use of debug heap in some way) because the consequent allocations happen
not to touch the freed memory block long enough. That’s impossible with debug
heap as it intentionally fills the memory with special values on free. Wine
does not clear the freed memory but heap allocation algorithm is different and
it may result in memory being overwritten sooner.
