 Update:
 
 With wine 0.9.29 on an out-of-date -current I now get
 
    % wineprefixcreate
       :
    Font metrics: 100.0% done
    err:x11drv:process_attach XInitThreads failed, trouble ahead
    err:x11drv:process_attach XInitThreads failed, trouble ahead
    Failed to open the service control manager.
    err:seh:raise_exception Unhandled exception code 57e58955 flags ec835356 addr 0xe8
    Exit 1
    % 
 
 but with wine 0.9.30 on -current of 20070130 I need the PTHREAD_STACKSIZE
 workaround mentioned before to get this behavior, or like before it
 just dumps core.
 
 Maybe or maybe not relatedly, the program I actually need to be able
 to run (that legacy compiler) is now dumping core too, PTHREAD_STACKSIZE
 or not; I don't have time to deal with it right now, but I thought I'd
 report this much because it may constitute progress.
