--- Comment #3 from eric.c.dahl@gmail.com 2012-01-21 20:15:46 CST --- I found the cause of this issue, and it is not a wine bug. It is rather just the way the game behaves in a certain condition: when gethostbyname() returns null for the local system's hostname (such as when /etc/hosts wasn't configured properly).
Some info on the diagnosis is here: http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?p=162615#post162615
