I set the default in winecfg to native msvcrt. Now only the native dll
loads, and the error message disappears ! So, there seems to be a
problem with the builtin msvrct.

Of course, now the app crashes just after it is done initializing the
user interface according to its start-up messages and just before it
want to create the main window with the menus and a 3d display area.

I will try to produce debug output for that as well and will try to
mroe default native dlls.
