I can confirm that the patch created by Austin English in comment #18 fixes this problem.
Without the patch, I too get the same error that OP wrote about. With the patch, the game Mortal Kombat X launches without this error.
The patch applies cleanly to wine-1.9.12 and I have already build packages that include this patch for my distribution.
Maybe staging is interested in this new release that is still unleashed. It will take at least 2 more weeks to get this fixed in upstream release (unless using git or pathing yourself).
I agree, it definitely should first go to staging because 1) it'll be out in the wild quicker and therefore can be used by those that need this fix and 2) it will get tested "just in case". Of course stable release should also implement it ASAP ;)
