console log
In the demo of W3:Darklords Rising you cannot click on any of the menu items
since mouse clicks don't register. This affects the demo of Warlords3: Reign of
Heroes, too.
How to reproduce the issue:
Note: you have to install the demo using Wine-1.1.30 or earlier to workaround
bug #24777 (or use a native Windows and copy over the installed game).
Start the demo by DarkDemo.exe. A setup screen is shown first; the mouse works
fine here. Click on Single Player: the game menu will load but you cannot click
on anything. Before the regression the mouse pointer changed its shape when you
hover over a selectable item in the menu. Now it always shows the same (arrow)
shape.
The result of regression testing:
914c8cb8ea1e5cbcfa18558961185dd94313b26d is the first bad commit
commit 914c8cb8ea1e5cbcfa18558961185dd94313b26d

The patch can be reverted cleanly on Wine-1.3.4 and that fixed the issue (mouse
clicks do register again).
There are other bugreports involving the same commit: bug #22948 and bug
#22696.
There's a crash at the end of the attached log: it happens when you quit from
the game by pressing <Ctrl+q> in the menu, that was present before the
regression, too.
