            Bug ID: 60117
           Summary: Evolution: The Game of Intelligent Life demo fails to
                    start
           Product: Wine
           Version: 8.5
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: imm32
          Assignee: [e-mail]

Created attachment 81675

WINEDEBUG=+imm,+msgbox

Steps to reproduce:

1. Run `wine Evolution-The-Game-of-Intelligent-Life_Demo_Win_EN.exe`

2. Run `LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 wine 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Discovery
Multimedia\EvoDemo\EvoDemo.exe'`

LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 is necessary to avoid a DirectDraw
DDERR_OUTOFVIDEOMEMORY error.

In Wine 8.4 and before, the game shows three error dialogs on start that say
"MEM_BAD_HANDLE" and then one more when you start the game, but the game is
playable.

In Wine 8.5 and later, the game shows one error dialog on start that says
"SmartHeap error handler recursively re-entered." Then the game simply exits.

`git bisect` says:

Reverting that specific commit atop current master makes the game playable
again.
