It is documented and verified for Windows < Vista.
You think XP is dead? Think again.

This I can agree with but once again, we have left this particular
dll behind us. It is just one way of triggering this particular bug.

I just a causal Wine user from time to time. It is even more unlikely I will
do that than a Wine developer that cares does it. It is a bug in Wine, plain
and simple.
