When you mean 'works on Windows' is it Chessmaser 9000 or the fact that
giving a bad pointer to this DX8 API call does not make the program crash ?

Because to be sure to get your patch applied, the best way would be to
understand WHY CM9000 gives this 0x1 pointer to the DX8 function. It may be
due to a memory allocation error, some stack trashing, some other bugs in
Wine, ...

So I fear that only doing some REing of the CM9000 code would help here.
