--- Comment #8 from Anastasius Focht  ---
Hello folks,

the actual culprit was Steam's Game Overlay Renderer hooking various APIs, and
some of them have GOT/PIC register load code directly at API entry which is a
no-no.

Refining the summary to make it more clear and easier to find for end users. I
hope this prevents more duplicates. Currently there is no clear message/hint to
them when looking for existing issues related to Steam games crashes in
Bugzilla.

Also setting the version field to Wine 4.6 - even if the "regression" appeared
in between 4.5 and 4.6. Most users report against official releases.
