I assume Roderick is talking about the final Release on the d3d device, ie, the one you got from CreateDevice. The surfaces are holding a couple of references to the device, and those should get released when the surface is destroyed, yes. But the application is also holding a single reference to de device.
Looking at the trace from the multitexture demo, it appears GetContainer sometimes adds an extra reference to the device. I've submitted a patch for this to wine-patches.
