Yes, that's how DIBs work in Wine.

There's nothing surprising here. The page protection is transparent to
the app, and exceptions are handled by Wine. It's only because the app
breaks exception handling that you get problems.

They don't install it in a clever way, that's the whole problem. They
simply blindly override any other installed handler. The only way to fix
it apart from writing a DIB engine would be to add a special hack to
make the DIB exception handler take priority over the app broken
handler.
