I did some more testing and found that the fix to the problem was committed December 5: http://www.winehq.com/pipermail/wine-cvs/2005-December/019660.html
Before that point, wine gives me these fixme's and my router dies: fixme:winsock:convert_af_w2u unhandled Windows address family 0 fixme:winsock:convert_proto_w2u unhandled Windows socket protocol 0 I hope they prove to be useful.
