Wine has nothing to do with that.

Wine gives to X a font  - an external input for Wine. 
X don't like it. Unless the font has been converted
using font2bdf, there is nothing Wine can do to make
the font palatable to X Window. It's either a font or a
X Window problem.

Wine could ignore the invalid external inputs, though.

I have already posted this patch on this news group
