Hi Alexandre, i did some re-test with the demo and full game, but to make it
less confusing i change the subj, so this bug will be just about demo version.

It still happens to me. Demo crashes immediately when running -O0 and with -O2
i can enter the game and see it's menu. Just in case someone with more
knowledge than me would like to look at it, i provide step by step i did today
& wine-1.5.3.

I changed the steps compared to AppDB, because it can be simpler (no need for
.Net in case of demo, full DirectX...):

1) I compiled wine-1.5.3 once with -O0 and in another dir once again with -O2

2) I installed the Hoi 3 demo

3) I manually took vcomp.dll (md5: 73dbaa64d589f3262615550dd6881fee) + it's
OpenMP manifest file from vcrun2005sp1 (2011-06-07), put them into appropriate
/windows/winsxs/...

4) I copied from Directx Jun2010 d3dx9_36.dll (md5:
44bfec5c9c82a2ee9871d88fd3b9a0e2) into /windows/system32

5) I copied from Directx Feb2010 quartz.dll (md5:
6b6e934bee7aa98a5eed62c6c8506612) into /windows/system32. It's interesting,
that latest quartz.dll from fully patched WinXP doesn't work at all and crashes
immediately, thus i used Feb2010's.

6) Set in winecfg d3dx9_36 + quartz + vcomp to native.

7) Set windowed mode 800x600 in winecfg

8) wine regsvr32 quartz.dll

9) HKCU/Software/Wine/DirectSound/MaxShadowSize to "0"

10) Try running wine hoi3.exe compiled with -O0 and then -O2.

For me, -O0 crashes immediately and -O2 runs fine. The code is same so this
shouldn’t be regression, it's all pretty fragile for regression testing and i
don't have deeper knowledge to process this further. Let's mark it as invalid,
if anyone would be interested, feel free to reopen - recipe above.
