--- Comment #23 from Rémi Bernon <rbernon at codeweavers.com> ---
I only have a limited understanding of what information games would see, but
for applications that choke on symlinks, I can mention CoD games anti-tamper
(for instance CoD: WWII) that I know are broken with the way Wine currently
reports them.

IIRC it specifically checks ntdll.dll path, and steam_api64.dll that is
expected to be located alongside the game executable, and breaks in both case
if a symlink is involved somewhere that makes realpath report a different path.

I haven't tested with the staging patch series, so I don't know precisely if
the game can be made happy with more accurate reporting, but that could
probably be a good test case.
