winetricks -q, rather. I'm not married to adding mfc42 if there's a workaround that can be used instead.
Sorry, I should have checked bugzilla first!

However, the patch allows PidGen.dll referred to in the above bug to do its dirty work, which should remove a blockage from some games.
The 'winetricks -w mfc42' workaround should still work even if Wine begins to implement mfc42.

What does this accomplish? I.e. how does it improve things over the current situation?
Just because there's a workaround doesn't mean it shouldn't be fixed.
The problem though is that it's completely undocumented. I don't think adding a stub with no exports that is unlikely to be implemented improves things over the status quo.
