Erhm, I think the only prg that run semi reliable is solitare :(
I have tried other bits and pieces, but most of the time I get
semilar results like you do, or cascades of some "unknown"
API function called :(
But who's to bother, the old 16bit winapi is dying, and is dying
real fast, now it's win32 that counts (and it is smaller and
easier to emulate), so Wine has sort of "outlived" itself even
before it got born :)
