Want to do some coding (you appear to have at least some experience)?

The first step would be to add a test case to the Wine source code, to 
the file dlls/kernel32/tests/file.c. There is a function 
test_CreateFileA(), and adding a test for that case should be fairly easy.

Then of course, maybe take a shot at fixing the bug. I doubt that would 
be very difficult either.
