 FWIW I've now rebuilt the latest version under Linux and ran it under Wine
and I still don't see the problem, neither with wine (3.0) nor
wine-development (3.5). Perhaps it's due to the difference in the WM being
used? I just use the bog standard Gnome shell here.

 Anyhow, I don't think we want to spend much more time on this for the
already mentioned reasons, so I'll stop debugging this here (but will
continue with the other bug, related to maximizing the window), unless you
tell me differently.

 Thanks,
