Minimal Delphi app that shows the bug

I'm testing an in-house app written en Delphi 3, the only really annoying
glitch I have found so far happens after a QuickReport preview windows opens.

The Preview and works OK, but then any label drawn in the app uses the System
font.

The effect is akin to bug #29758, but my logs don't include the error reported
there.

Instead, I guess Wine is messing somewhat within the WM_GETFONT and/or
WM_SETFONT calls, yet my debugging abilities are pretty limited.

WM_GETFONT calls aren't returning NULL, but decimal 504, I wonder if that
WM_SETFONT takes that as an invalid handle.

I'm attaching a minimal (kind of, the binary is pretty big) test case.

I can confirm this bug, also with Delhi4 and Delphi 7.
I discovered tthat the problem is with the default font that Delphi uses with
forms. It is a fixed font: "MS Sans Serif", that in certain circunstances (when
the font is freeded) is not correctly load again by the executable.

There are two possible workarounds to try:
- To copy the files *.fon from a Windows machine to Wine
- If you have the Delphi sources, change the font on all the visual components
to a different (ttf) font like Arial. I also found that changing the TForm
default font, for example, to Arial distorts the forms metrics.

This is your friendly reminder that there has been no bug activity for over a
year. Is this still an issue in current (1.7.37 or newer) wine? If so, please
attach the terminal output in 1.7.37 (see http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#get_log).
