\WINEDEBUG=+comm wine microbrn.exe  &> file.op

wine --version
wine-1.1.3

The name of the application I am trying to run has changed - it is just a newer
version of the same thing.

The results are the same and since upgrading to a newer OS wine 0.9.22 no
longer compiles so I'm really stuck now being unable to run two versions in
parallel.

I've seen suggestions that the root cause might be due to a driver / module
problem and not directly related to wine - how is that possible when it works
with earlier versions?

Is there anything that can be done to resolve this or should the bug be
abandoned?
