searching bugzilla for WM_ERASEBKGND returns lots of bugs, but I have no idea if mine is there

The bug is weird. Running uTorrent (latest beta ) http://download.utorrent.com/beta/utorrent-1.7-beta-2899.uncompressed.exe with wine set to emulate XP is fine, but when you set it to Windows 98 or lower wine stops sending WM_ERASEBKGND (or/and breaks WM_PAINT). background surfaces are not repainted and remain black. is this http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6006 ? Il try to compile latest git with patches from that bug before filling new one.
