When a program does not work as expected under Wine, it's a bug in wine, it needs to be investigated to figure out where things are going wrong.  In this case, it also doesn't work on Windows (2003 atleast) so it's a little trickier because it means that in some circumstances it should not run under Wine.

It's not missing dependencies, it's usually incompatibility, Windows does one thing when running the app and Wine does another.  I'll take another look today.
