Yes, it seems so.
I had never tried Perl before, I can't say I'm sorry
to have waited so long :-)

Try this one (unwrap as necessary)

<snip strace for dll loading problem>

>Can you make anything of it?

No :-/
You said that most apps have this problem; that's interesting,
that imply that at least one is able to load a dll; which and
what difference could exist with the one failing ?

Also trying the one failing with same Wine version on
a computer with another distro could be interesting.
