That's great news, any chance that this patch will make it into 1.2?
I think it's safe enough, already submitted here: http://source.winehq.org/patches/data/63310
As mentioned the bug 19659 is related in the way that the EQ2 programmers used a similar way of memory management there but it's not the same place in the wine code and it's not triggered the same way. That bug is a crash from specific items that may or may not have been fixed since 1.1.18, there is no way to know without getting past this bug that prevents you to progress from the character select menu.
Bug 19659 probably got some issues mixed up, but e.g. the description and backtrace from comment 21 of that bug are pretty much identical to this one, and that clearly predates 9308c5499fa1f13ca5fff58f22a95ba60aa54726.
