unhandled exception backtrace

(Currently, it is very hard to just install any Python (3) interpreter at all
under Wine ... The Anaconda installer fails, the ActivePython installer fails,
the CPython installer fails ... So I though I'd be clever and just download the
CPython interpreter itself. Well, it fails, too.)

* Steps:
wget https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.6.1/python-3.6.1-embed-win32.zip
unzip python-3.6.1-embed-win32.zip
wine python.exe

* Expected result:
A somewhat operational python interpreter / shell. Nothing fancy, no packages,
just Python 3.

* Actual result:
wine: Call from 0x7b43fa2e to unimplemented function
api-ms-win-core-path-l1-1-0.dll.PathCchCombineEx, aborting
wine: Unimplemented function api-ms-win-core-path-l1-1-0.dll.PathCchCombineEx
called at address 0x7b43fa2e (thread 0009), starting debugger...

I attached the full backtrace. 32/64 bit versions of Python behave identically.

(I am running Wine 2.6 on openSUSE Leap 42.2. I am willing to test patches. In
the context of the CPython installer, I was already pointed to Wine Staging. I
have not tested this yet but will do. The Python interpreter is literally the
heard of a lot of software, so it is important from my point of view to make it
work.)
