WINE for WPO 2000 finally seems broken by glibc2.2.1

[OS]

Hello,

Having gone to glibc 2.2.1 WPO 2000 no longer runs at all ! All the apps
simply put out the message :
Unhandled exception: priviledged instruction in 32-bit code (0x40dae72f).

Oh dear ! With WPO for Window$ currently on service pack 4, those
dedicated Corel Linux people
haven't even rebuilt WINE for such a long time that it no longer works
at all !!!

So how about it Corel. Before you start shipping M$ Office give us 4
service packs and a WINE that
works !!!

I actually don't think that there is a WINE that works :-).

But anyhow:

Are you using Red Hat Glibc 2.2-12?

I have that installed and I think it still works OK. Actually works better
except for some screen redraw issues.

Are you just complaining, or do you want to know how to fix this?

'Down-grade' to the previous version of Glibc that works.

Then, install (do NOT upgrade) the new version.

If you get a message about conflicts, enable replacement of files:
"--replacefiles"
