Wizard101 launcher terminal output

The Wizard101 launcher now most of the time throws up a message that "an error
has occurred" and asking if I want to report it. The problem is minor, because
clicking "No" closes the dialog and I can then log in and play the game
normally, though the "Ravenwood News" never loads.

The regression test identified commit cde372700c8c1fc66f727c66d1852d33aaa70794,
but reverting that commit does not fix the problem. However, when I tested
wine-1.5.27-116-gcb1998a and wine-1.5.27-117-gcde3727 several times, going back
and forth between them, the problem consistently appeared with the latter and
not with the former.

The line

ient/BankA/WizardLauncher.exe: ath.c:193: _gcry_ath_mutex_lock: Assertion
`*lock == ((ath_mutex_t) 0)' failed.

appears in the console output whenever the problem occurs, and is not there
when it doesn't.
