Oh.  Darn.  I thought you had found the patch that caused java
to require root.

It kind of sounds like you always used root, but I'm not sure why.

But that bug (10584) was complicated and confusing; it's an example of
perhaps trying too hard to get an app running when Wine isn't ready for it.
I don't know if we can draw too many conclusions from it.
