Some of the Oberon games exhibit this error when trying to run.

cinfirming. Runs fine with native msvcrt (the game comes with its own msvcrt,
so maybe it uses some kind of new fancy feature from that dll)

Confirmed that using native msvcrt also works for Merv Griffin's Crosswords
(another affected application). I had to use the one from Flip Or Flop, as it
didn't install msvcrt itself.

The workaround for this bug now breaks Wine's gecko with
wine: Call from 0x7bc4ad90 to unimplemented function msvcrt.dll._snwprintf_s,
aborting
it seems.

http://www.nickjr.com/games/p-doras-carnival-2-adventure.jhtml now works
without native msvcrt, and it used to have the same error, so probably fixed.
