It seems that microsoft have decided to change some of the system fonts with their own versions - look in /Library/Fonts and you will see that some of the font files (eg Arial, Times, Verdana, Wingdings) are now links to the MS Fonts. MS moved the originals to /Library/Fonts\ Disabled/) but the links from your wine prefix fonts to these are now broken.

need/want/desire the Windows one?
