 There seem to be some DirectX regressions in the latest wine. I'd
recommend switching back to 0.9.30 for now.
 Other regressions I've spotted so far:
 Freedom Force vs. the Third Reich used to run, though the buttons were
rendered incorrectly -- now crashes when the menu comes up.
 Morrowind had a big improvement in startup time (used to sit there for
about 2 and a half minutes before it did anything, 0.9.31 only takes 45
seconds) but it now crashes as soon as a loaded game starts.

 Half-Life 2 still runs fine, though.

 I'm thinking I'll try to do a regression test to figure out what patch
broke this stuff so I can alert the developers, but I haven't had a chance
yet. (I only installed 0.9.31 yesterday when the Ubuntu build was ready)
