Just tested 32 bit Gimp-2.6.2 with wine-1.1.22 and a fresh '.wine' directory (Mandriva 2009.1 x86-64). This bug still is present. Please try one of the following to trigger it:
Launch Gimp from the KDE, Genome, etc. menu.
Or from any directory other than that in which Gimp is installed, run:
$ wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Gimp-2.0/bin/gimp-2.6.exe
Then once Gimp is running, open any image.
With Gimp-2.6.6, the bug appears different - no images are displayed in the file dialogs. When launching from the ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Gimp-2.0/bin/ directory with "$ wine gimp-2.6.exe" the bug is no uncovered.
Gimp is depending on being started from its directory. That's a gimp bug.
