That's very unfortunate, as it is extremely counterintuitive. To the point where *I* gave up on using the debugger. A developer. What about users? We'll have to explain weird technical reasons: that's a winelib app, that's PE executable, etc. This sucks. Wine should seamlessly integrate all these executables together. A user should not care about the actual type of executable, it should just be able to run the dang thing.
But that's exactly what it does. You have problems because you know too much; with the new scheme a user doesn't even have to know that there is a way to configure the debugger, it will just work. The change only bites people who knew how it worked before and adapted their registry; so now you need to return your registry to the default state to make things work.
