------- Additional Comments From molle.bestefich@gmail.com 2005-07-11 08:12 ------- Just had a brief chat with Javi S. Pedro (reporter of this bug).
It wasn't clear from his original description which version of Wine he previously used to test Trillian.
He seems to remember using the version recommended by WineTools, which currently is 20041019.
Looking at the source code of 20041019 ("svn blame -r17705 svn://wine-svn.troy.rollo.name/wine/wine/trunk/windows/winpos.c") shows that the lines which my patch fixes also exist there, and has in fact been in place since at least 1998.
Regression testing could be done to find if there's a better way to fix the splash screen problem than with the patch I posted earlier, but the effort might be fruitless. Alexandre Julliard did a rewrite of the windowing system about that time, so a lot of things are bound to interact in a very different way than before.
