Crash log for Speedy Blupi demo near Wine 1.3.34

Several games by Epsitec which feature their Blupi character don't render
correctly if run after "winetricks ddr=gdi". This is a regression.

The games with this problem are Blupi at Home, Speedy Blupi and Planet
Blupi. Demos can be downloaded from http://www.ceebot.com/blupi/load-e.php

I tested Speedy Blupi, http://www.ceebot.com/download/blupi/speedy-e.exe

With the default opengl renderer the game works correctly. However after
"winetricks ddr=gdi", with or without virtual desktop mode the game just shows
a blank/black screen. The program is running, it just doesn't display anything.
(You can click to quit if you know where to click.)

I did a regression test, but unfortunately the result wasn't conclusive.

1.3.33 GOOD
 1.3.34 get a crash on running the program
 1.3.35 BAD, black screen

I bisected between 1.3.33 and 1.3.34 to find which commit caused the crash:

0f10ac93580d5a055f0b3f6e7c3d77738135f031 is the first bad commit

ab3f595c09537f3f18bd03bbe708c584f62e3952 M    dlls

I then bisected again between there and 1.3.35 (doing git bisect bad on black
screen/no crash), which gave this result:

c43aa1ada82e30168a373d584ad7ef62a5e04677 is the first bad commit
commit c43aa1ada82e30168a373d584ad7ef62a5e04677

wined3d: Only unload the surface when we're using GL for rendering in
updateSurfaceDesc().

f2e62de0ba87f19f2705e53352affce2c88fd001 M    dlls

(Presumably commit c43aa1ada82e30168a373d584ad7ef62a5e04677 *isn't* bad, git
just said that because I had to reverse conditions for the second bisecting.)

I've attached console output when the program crashed, but that probably isn't
too relevant since it doesn't crash any more.

I guess the next step would be bisecting between commits
0f10ac93580d5a055f0b3f6e7c3d77738135f031 and
c43aa1ada82e30168a373d584ad7ef62a5e04677, but at each step reverting commit
0f10ac93580d5a055f0b3f6e7c3d77738135f031???

If the OpenGL renderer works correctly this bug isn't very interesting. The
"gdi" renderer will eventually go away, it's really just left around as a
workaround for some of the known bugs in the GL renderer. Probably WONTFIX.
