I can't seem to find any reported application that depends on these values returning success, and, in lieu of one, I'm not sure that this patch has any value.
Michael, without meaning to drag you back into a project that you've resigned from, could you please offer some explanation as to what this patch was meant for?
The patch is for Overwatch. You can, for example, see Overwatch calling it in the following debug logs:
https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=59293 https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=59134
As far as I remember the application checked for an error and failed otherwise.
Just to make it shorter in the future: Except some speed improvement experiments that we did, all the patches in Wine Staging fix an application or bring it further. The patches just do not always come with a list of fixed applications attached, just like the ones sent to wine-devel.
