This is because you have different distribution with different libraries. So
this is expected and this is exactly why I wrote reverse regression testing
guide.

This is just another incompatibility. See
http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-devel/2007-June/057650.html for
solution - it may help.

If you get fatal errors from any git command you should stop and fix them
before continuing.

This is the error I get sometimes if I forget to run "make distclean;
git-checkout -f" before executing "git-bisect bad/good". There is legitimate
reasons for this error so this is not a bug. But sometimes it may be a little
annoying. Try to run this:
git-clean -d
git-checkout -f
Does this help? Please note that this will erase all untracked files in WINE
source directory. This is typical and very useful clean up procedure so it is
good practice to avoid non-autogenerated untracked files in directory with
git-tree.

As I have said before if this is too hard/annoying for you then you should
think about sending the game to me and I'll return it back to you when done
with regression testing. Of course if you enjoy learning git and
solving "strange" problems I will do my best to help you remotely.
Thank you for using WINE.
