It takes me very much time to determit this problem. In detail, I was trying out OmniPage, but it seems that the problem isn't realy related only to this application (none other application I tried work at that time). In all versions of Wine, I got misbehaviour by the comdlg32 (the open/save dialog). The different comdlg32/Wine versions (always compiled with GCC 4.1.1): Builtin-version (Wine versions < ~0.9.15): Firstly, if I click on a file, the filename isn't put into the filename textbox. Okay, if I write down the filename manually, the opening in Omnipage works. If I try to save it now, I got similar problems. But there are also other problems. It seems, that Omnipage tries to dertermit, which filetype I selected in the save-under-dialog, but it has some troubles with it. At the end, I got an 'error 6' by OmniPage and that's all (the file wasn't written). Builtin-version (Wine versions >= ~0.9.15): The open-dialog behaves like above, but after clicking on 'save', the application crashes immediately. (Why the hell is the more recent version more unstable?) Native-versions (tried Win95, Win2000, WinXP SP0, WinXP SP2) varies between: - The application doesn't start. (Most common.) - The application crashes after clicking on 'open' or 'save'. - Save/Open dialog behaves similar to the builtin-version of comdlg32. I tried out the following wine-versions (all these compiled with GCC 4.1.1): Fri Jun 9 23:23:52 2006 >>> app-emulation/wine-0.9.15 Sat Jul 22 05:29:52 2006 >>> app-emulation/wine-0.9.17 Fri Aug 11 00:07:50 2006 >>> app-emulation/wine-0.9.18 Sat Sep 9 17:59:42 2006 >>> app-emulation/wine-0.9.20 Thu Sep 14 23:56:25 2006 >>> app-emulation/wine-0.9.21 Fri Sep 29 14:47:31 2006 >>> app-emulation/wine-0.9.22 Sun Oct 15 06:40:07 2006 >>> app-emulation/wine-0.9.23 Sun Dec 24 22:14:23 2006 >>> app-emulation/wine-0.9.28 Sun Jan 14 20:45:09 2007 >>> app-emulation/wine-0.9.22 Sun Jan 21 16:09:04 2007 >>> app-emulation/wine-0.9.17 Sun Jan 21 21:42:32 2007 >>> app-emulation/wine-0.9.15 Mon Feb 19 02:51:44 2007 >>> app-emulation/wine-0.9.13 Mon Feb 19 17:28:09 2007 >>> app-emulation/wine-0.9.31 Thu Mar 22 03:51:18 2007 >>> app-emulation/wine-0.9.33 Mon Apr 2 19:21:59 2007 >>> app-emulation/wine-0.9.29 Mon Apr 2 20:29:29 2007 >>> app-emulation/wine-9999 Mon Apr 9 20:12:32 2007 >>> app-emulation/wine-0.9.15 Wed Apr 11 13:47:53 2007 >>> app-emulation/wine-0.9.13 Wed Apr 11 14:30:59 2007 >>> app-emulation/wine-0.9.11 Wed Apr 11 15:38:33 2007 >>> app-emulation/wine-0.9.9 Wed Apr 11 16:32:52 2007 >>> app-emulation/wine-0.9.8-r1 Wed Apr 11 17:54:29 2007 >>> app-emulation/wine-0.9.5-r1 Wed Apr 11 20:48:58 2007 >>> app-emulation/wine-0.9.34 Wed Apr 11 22:28:50 2007 >>> app-emulation/wine-0.9.10 The strange thing was, some version between 0.9.5 and 0.9.15 has worked once. Then I got the idea that it is perhaps GCC related and I installed again GCC 3.4.6 and tried Wine 0.9.10 with it. The result: It works like it has already once, I can save now the file! There is still the issue, that I have to type the filename manually, but this is now a minor problem. (But why is it? Do others have this problem too?) After this, I tried Wine 0.9.34 with GCC 3.4.6, but this results in the same behavior as described above (got 'error 6' by OmniPage). So I will stay now with a Wine 0.9.10, compiled by GCC 3.4.6.

Stop arbitrarily mixing GCC versions. Reopen if you still have problems after you've followed the upgrading guide: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gcc-upgrading.xml
GCC 3.4.6 wasn't used and even not installed before. (Last time it was is almost one year ago.) The whole system uses GCC 4.1.1 since it is stable in portage. I only reemerged it to test Wine with GCC 3.4.6.
I have this problem too. Wine not work corectly on gcc 4.4.0,4.4.1.
Time to close this as stable toolchain is at GCC 4.5.x and 4.1.x is hardly intresting anymore.
