including the one I work for) that can do this for you.
BTW, you might be able to clarify how it can happen that Crossover (derived
from LGPL-ed WINE, if I understand it correctly) doesn't have one of these
bugs, but WINE does? I used to think that LGPL requires availability of
modified source, and therefore WINE developers should be able to 'backport'
bugfixes from CrossOver to WINE, shouldn't they?

If your business depends upon getting a Wine bug fixed, then you should pay
somebody to work on the problem. There are several companies (including
the one I work for) that can do this for you.
