To bughunters/devs/other people: issue is that wine is not using corefonts even when you got them installed in your system (you have to make manual symlink with them into wine folder or install them another time with winetricks). Imo upon compilation of wine it should determine folder with corefonts (if any) and include them into fonts folder whenver new .wine dir is created.
