I'm not a CSS player, but I used to apply win98 mode to hl2.exe, so lots of source games wouldn't crash, including tf2, and insurgency (which would crash on start up). I no longer need to do this; I can use winver winxp, and the games don't crash (and might also be running faster).
Hopefully this evidence is not too anecdotal, but it might show that the bug is fixed or ameliorated as a result of recent gdi/dib work.
Unfortunately this bug seems to exist still, at least as of wine-1.4-rc2. It basically makes the game unplayable for me because the crashing is so random and frequent.
I tried the HUD modification as a possible work around but it causes the fonts on the scoreboard (when you press tab in-game) to be invisible. Perhaps it relies on a font I don't have? I did install the MS core fonts, so not sure what's going on there.
