Meaning of error message

[Segin]

II have recently recieved the following message during the installation 
of a program with the instantaneous termination of the installer:

wine-pthread: stack smashing attack in function RichEditANSIWndProc()

Does this mean that there is a bug in the installer or the function 
RichEditANSIWndProc()?

Probably RichEditANSIWndProc. Please run with +richedit,+message logging 
and post the last 20 or so lines here.

Although I haven't done logging like you have said before, the manpage 
gives a goot hint to put "+richedit,+message" in the enviroment variable 
WINEDEBUG. However, if this is correct, then there was no additional 
output, or I compiled Wine wrong. I'll go try to compile Wine with 
whatever debugging enabled that I can enable.
