Specifically, I tried following the dll overrides on this (http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=13402) page, and then I also tried (with a clean .wine directory) following the instructions here (http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=10158) (which are pretty much the same). You'll notice that someone on this (http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=16878) page gets the same exception as me, but there is no resolution.
