--- Comment #2 from Matteo Bruni  ---
Sounds like a staging bug then.

My guess is this is due to:

err:wgl:glxdrv_wglShareLists Could not share display lists, one of the contexts
has been current already !

vs

err:wgl:glxdrv_wglShareLists Recreating OpenGL context to share display lists,
although the context has been current!

I.e. it works mostly by chance on plain Wine and the staging patches fixing /
hacking around wglShareLists() end up breaking it, again mostly by chance. If
that's actually it, I don't think there is any way to fix this properly.

Same behaviour can be seen with 5.15(-staging).

Then, idk how or why this is a either-or situation, where you will always have
to choose between fixing program A or program B.. 
But if this is really the case, then why not making it switchable at runtime
like proposed on bug 11436, comment 25?
