                    around 10 minutes
           Product: Wine

   Regression SHA1: 204e53e449474253af6b2d7dc267a5fa37476649
This regression is essentially identical to
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29555
Screen will be frozen (stuck at the last working frame) after playing an Age of
Empires II game for around 10-15 minutes while the audio (& the game itself i
suppose) is still working after the screen is frozen.
Reverted the said commit from the latest git master does do away the screen
freeze.

1. Download & install AOE 2 Trial:
http://download.microsoft.com/download/aoeaok/Trial/1.0/WIN98/EN-US/AoE2demo...
2. Set DirectDrawRenderer to "gdi" in registry
http://wiki.winehq.org/UsefulRegistryKeys
3. Launch AOE2 Trial
4. Start a Single Player game, for example: Single Player -> Random Map ->
Trial Costal Map
It's a good idea to set the difficulty level to "Easiest" if you are not
familiar with the game (so that you won't be defeated by computers before the
screen freezes ;-))
5. (OPTIONAL) Press F11 to enable  game clock (the clock will show up at the
top
left corner)
6. Wait for the screen to freeze. (Screen will freeze at around 6:XX to 18:XX
if game speed is set to "fast")
