This is a known problem on WineHQ. The support for this is planned but
nothing has acually been done yet (it's something very annoying to do :-) ).

If I find time in the next weeks to rework on D3D, I may finally add this
(it's THE one feature that is missing to make a lot of old games work
properly).

Ah ? I will have to test it on my box for regressions then :-)
