Hello Wine-Devel
I have not filled a bug with this a some of you may already know a solution to this problem.
I've a contributor to the Mono project (http://www.go-mono.com) working on the System.Windows.Forms namespace. It has been decided to use Wine to implement this assembly since the S.W.F is rather tightly bound to the Win32 API.
But we are facing a nasty problem. Current Mono implementation is using Hans Boehm conservative garbage collector and Wine cannot seems to work happily with that garbage collector. The temporary solution for development is to use Mono without garbage collection. This solution however, should not even be considered when Mono and it's System.Windows.Forms implementation will go mainstream.
I've joined a small test case so one can try. Wine just crash at the first call to GC_malloc. Any help or advice is appreciated.
