Could someone please pick this up, and try get this fixed (my patch didn't make it into git).
This affects _many_ .net applications , and i'm pretty sure lots of them are going to run just fine once this is fixed. This bug shouldn't be to hard to solve.
Is it the patch you attached to this bug? I do not have any free time ATM or I'd try to help, I have some thoughts on what might need to be done. Have you started a discussion on wine-devel (if you have then I have not noticed it)? I believe that what this interface needs to do is allow you to call a function from the Vtable of ANY interface, so if it's the same patch you submitted here then they probably rejected it since it's in with the routines for the IContext interface.

wine-1.1.4]$ patch -p1 < ../Bug15775Patch.txt wine-1.1.4]$ tools/wineinstall
Have you compiled your original wine yourself or used it from your distro? These days you don't need to run "wineinstall", you should just need to do the standard "./configure && make && sudo make install". Either way, if you installed a version of wine included in your distro then you likely have TWO wine installs now, one in /usr/bin/ and one in /usr/local/bin. If this is the case then you need to uninstall the one provided by your distro so that you're using the one you compiled yourself.
