Frédéric, I tried again with Playonlinux. POL is really cool because I can try many Wine versions. So today, this bug's back.
Photoshop doesn't launch on most wine version since I upgraded my linux mint in version 16. Maybe it's a kernel problem ? So now i tried :
1.6.1 : freeze on "initiliazing tools ..."
1.7.0 : works 1.7.1 : works 1.7.2 : works
1.7.3 : freeze on "initiliazing tools ..." 1.7.4 : freeze on "initiliazing tools ..." 1.7.5 : freeze on "initiliazing tools ..." 1.7.6 : freeze on "initiliazing tools ..." 1.7.7 : freeze on "initiliazing tools ..."
Maybe a diff between 1.7.2 and 1.7.3 will localise the bug. Hope this could help.
You really should try with plain wine. PoL is not supported here since it changes things from vanilla Wine, and we can't support that. For instance, wine 1.7.0 seemed to fail for you (if I see the bug "Version" field) while it apparently works with PoL 1.7.1
So, the best you could do would be to perform a regression test (http://wiki.winehq.org/RegressionTesting) since I can't reproduce the bug. Otherwise it'll be very hard to fix...
