Could be a timing issue. You could try reducing the number of cores with taskset -c 1 wine ... or the like and see if that makes any difference.
That didn't help either. With 'taskset -c 0' the game hangs at the same point as before, the only difference is that this message isn't showing up in the terminal: err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 0x68ebe340 "x11drv_main.c: X11DRV_CritSection" ....
