Wine built from git sources shows instrument names normally, although with a
different font than with fedora's wine 1.1.38. So... distro specific bug?

Digging deeper, I found:
with wine 1.1.38 the following fonts are loaded:
/usr/share/wine/fonts/tahoma.ttf
/usr/share/wine/fonts/sserife.fon
/usr/share/wine/fonts/tahomabd.ttf
/usr/share/wine/fonts/vgasys.fon

the instrument names are using sserife.fon
fedora's wine 1.3.4 does not have sserife.fon anymore

if I copy this missing font to ~/.fonts directory, wine 1.3.4 does not load it
anyway, but it loads tahoma.ttf instead, if it present, which fedora 14 does
not have too and this is why instrument names are not shown.

here is fonts loaded by wine 1.3.4:

/home/test/.fonts/tahoma.ttf
/usr/share/fonts/liberation/LiberationSans-Bold.ttf
/usr/share/fonts/liberation/LiberationSans-Regular.ttf

seems synthesizer .dll are using GdipGetGenericFontFamilySansSerif function
(found, using strings utility)

are .fon fonts not supported anymore?

They are supported.

Does your Wine package install them in /usr/share/wine/fonts?

Also performing a real regression test and posting its results would help.

no, it installs them in /usr/share/fonts:
/usr/share/fonts/wine-courier-fonts
/usr/share/fonts/wine-marlett-fonts
/usr/share/fonts/wine-small-fonts
/usr/share/fonts/wine-symbol-fonts
/usr/share/fonts/wine-system-fonts
and they comes as a separate packages

/usr/share/wine/fonts is empty, I tried to copy sserife.fon and tahoma.ttf
here, but only tahoma are used.

Does it work if you compile Wine from source and run it from the build tree?

wine 1.3.6 compiled from git works, but uses tahoma.ttf instead of sserife.fon,
wine from fedora does the same (tested with 1.3.6 which is now available).
Played with the registry settings a little bit, but did not find why
sserife.fon is not used anymore. Fedora's wine does not use vgasys.fon for some
reason.

fonts loaded by wine 1.3.6 built from git (Oct 30):
/home/test/work/wine-git/fonts/tahoma.ttf
/home/test/work/wine-git/fonts/tahomabd.ttf
/home/test/work/wine-git/fonts/vgasys.fon

I think I found the bug. It is in dlls/gdiplus/font.c, function mentioned
before.
Isn't correct name for sserife.fon "MS Sans Serif"? Rebuilding now to check.

Yes, that was it, works now. On fedora "MS Sans Serif" is substituted 
by LiberationSerif-Regular.ttf, but can be changed to sserife.fon.

"MS Sans Serif" is a bitmap font while "Microsoft Sans Serif" is a truetype
one. I'd suggest to finally perform the regression test.

I think this is not necessary. Just looked at source of version 1.1.38 
GdipGetGenericFontFamilySansSerif. It searches for "MS Sans Serif". Starting
with 1.1.43 it searches for "Microsoft Sans Serif" and if can not find it,
returns "Tahoma". Since fedora's version of wine does not have "Microsoft Sans
Serif" nor "Tahoma", font is not drawn. Ok, I do not insist it is a bug. Don't
know what GdipGetGenericFontFamilySansSerif must return. If I set font
substitution Tahmoma->Liberation Sans in the registry, then instrument list is
shown. Or simply provide this missing font. Tried substitute with "MS Sans
Serif" too, but this does not work.

Wine doesn't ship Microsoft Sans Serif, bit it does provide Tahoma.
If your package doesn't install Tahoma, it's a packaging bug.

I'm insisting on a regression test since this bug is marked as a regression,
and performing a regression test for single dlls/gdiplus should be pretty fast.
But if turns out that the culprit is missing Tahoma then this bug is invalid.

Unfortunately, old versions segfaults on my system. But if font.c is changed as
it was in 1.1.38, the program behaves exactly as on wine 1.1.38. Culprit is
missing font, that GdipGetGenericFontFamilySansSerif returns. Don't know if
it's functionality is implemented correctly.

Assuming a broken Wine package. Once you have regression test results feel free
to reopen.

FWIW, this bug is still happening and I don't think it's due to a broken Wine
package, as it happens with Ubuntu/Mint's packages as well.

New working download link for Synth1 is
