I bet there are several patches that address specific game problems that otherwise not suitable for Wine. Pretty much the same thing that makes Crossover Office different from Wine.
I for one can think of "font of death" problem. the patch for it existed for a long time. But it's a hack not a proper patch - so it won't ever be part of Wine.
