Note that I used current sources as opposed to the 20050419 snapshot and I'd be surprised for this to make a difference, but I'll try. However, I do not have access to NTFS volumes, just native ones, so perhaps that makes a difference? > Please could you give me some pointers on what can I do to fix this? I'll try to reproduce with the "old" snapshot, but if I cannot, I recommend to contact the upstream developers (see http://www.winehq.com for details).
