wine-1.5.6-32-g00fb537 console output

SlingPlayer 1.5 fails to stream giving error 0x80004005 in
wine-1.5.6-32-g00fb537.

This used to work in earlier versions of Wine but a regression test is proving
impossible as the same error occurs in these earlier versions. I have no idea
why. The same version still works in Windows 2000.

To add to the mystery I *can* get it working by:

1. Installing under wine-1.5.6-32-g00fb537
2. Running under Wine 1.3 (which fails with the same error)
3. Running under wine-1.5.6-32-g00fb537

In other words switching between the two versions of Wine gets it working again
- I have no idea why!

And by working I mean the data streams and the sound works but there is no
video (likely another bug).

To get this far native quartz, qcap and gdiplus are required to work around
other bugs.
