WONTFIX, see https://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-devel/2015-December/110708.html
Huh. That feels like a bizarre decision.
I don't understand how it can be marked wontfix (after the fix patch was already created, no less) based on an assumption about the realness or distribution of the script in question rather than on the actual presence of a difference between behavior in Wine vs Windows. If I say that thousands of people have distribution of the software in question that includes the script does that change how real it is? I think that's the wrong benchmark. :\
It's partially due to copyrights. It can be permissible to copy if it is for interoperability, but not 'just because'. Published/popular applications have a stronger claim than a script for personal use that can be easily edited (unlike a compiled binary application). I know that doesn't help in your case, sorry about that, but wanted to give some explanation. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
