I'll just mention that, assuming you are referring to this patch:
http://cvs.winehq.org/patch.py?id=14198
it also causes a regression in Myst. Though I am not convinced the fault
is in the patch, rather than the patch exposing some other problem.
Would you mind trying my experimental patch to see if it
makes a difference? If it doesn't, could you also try
the attached patch and see if that does?
Cheers,
Jeremy
