Hi wine-1.3.26 played civ5 fine - I could install and play the steam version out the box (i.e I needed not to install any other components) When I install 1.3.27 I am not able to load civ5 from steam, wine crashes and I have to manually kill the process. Downgrading to wine 1.3.26 I can play again fine. Athlon64-X2 Nvidia geforce 450 GTS Arch linux 64 (using the 32bit wine version) If it helps here is the output on the console.
