Thanks for looking into this!

The technical details are way beyond my understanding, but I can confirm that
the patch seems to solve the problem. I have built Wine 7.7 with the patch
applied, and it allows me to run the application and communicate with my
Smart-House controller (the thing that is configured using the Smart-House
Configuration Tool).

I wouldn't be surprised if the application is broken in many ways. It has
always seemed a bit shaky to me. Unfortunately, one has to use this tool to
configure the Gen 1 Smart-House controller - there are no other options.

It seems unlikely that Carlo Gavazzi is going to fix the application as long as
it keeps working on Windows. Amazingly, this application from 2009 runs on
Windows 7/10/11.

If you have no more ideas for a fix, I guess I am stuck with compiling my own
version of Wine with the hack/patch applied - or use Windows. In that case, I
think we can close this bug as a "won't fix".

However, if you do come up with a fix or have anything you would like me to
test, please feel free to reach out.
