The magic of bisections is that "many hundreds" still only means about ten steps ;-)
Anyway, yes, it's a lot of work, but someone has to do it, or you have to ask developers to solve this bug as if they knew nothing about it. Believe me when I say that's far more difficult.
Yep. But you would only end up with a staging patch commit anyway, cos it is not that easy to bisect wine when needing staging. (Atleast not for me). Ie. Lets say i take a random git pull of wine, and try to apply staging to that it will fail.
So you would end up with a certain commit of staging causing a regression, but the commit COULD still be in wine, and somewhat harder to find out as its not "just" reverting patches of wine without breaking staging.
Then again, i am not that pro, so it could be easy for those in the know :)
