These appear to be .NET errors and it might be a good idea to look into 
using Mono and see if these 'go away'.  What version of .NET does the 
program require?

winetricks supports installation of Mono 2.x and is, for now, the best 
way to get the product installed.  Yes, we are looking into including it 
into the Wine package or as an add-on (like the Gecko engine.)

Mono supports 1.1, 2.0 and 3.0 very well and 3.5 somewhat (and maybe 
better than that.)  .NET 3.5 will not install, due to .dll dependencies, 
on Wine as it stands today.
