Different reasons. - A debugger detection that detects the relay thunks as debugger. Some copy protection schemes are a bit picky. - A race condition in the application that gets exploited by the big overhead of relay dumping. - Something times out when doing relay traces. - Use of uninitialized stack variables in. The contents of uninitialized variables can be very different with and without relay tracing. The bug might be in wine (forgetting to initialize something that must be initialized) or in a callback function of the application that by accident expects a zero in an uninitialized variable. - A bug in wine that causes a crash in relay dumping code (only if you see a backtrace at the end of the log; on the other hand, relay seems like a mostly safe channel, as it does not print user data except for strings, and that codepath is very well exercised.)
