For future warning, you can get yelled at for posting to bugs with output from an unofficial version of Wine. I do have a note about this on my website. If comment #11 doesn't work then please contact me by email and I will attempt to help you out.

... You need to work around this by using native d3dx9_36.dll - winetricks can install it, it's not related to this bug.
C&C3 SHOULD install d3dx9 libraries along with the game... The last time I tested this was around 1.1.38, but I doubt that's changed.
