Wine directory listing bug

Hi all,

Wine does not pick up all the files in a directory if there are more 
than approximately 60. The exact limit seems to differ.

The easiest way to see this issue is to run "wine cmd", then "cd 
z:\usr\bin" and finally "dir" (in a standard wine prefix). It also 
affects Innosetup's ISCC.exe which I am using to generate Windows 
installers.

I have tested this on:

a) Physical machine running 9.2-RELEASE-p3 amd64 in a jail. Both 
i386-wine-devel-1.7.11,1 and i386-wine-1.6.2 have the problem and 
returns only 62 files when there are >470 files in this directory.

b) Virtual machine also running 9.2-RELEASE-p3 amd64 no jail. 
i386-wine-devel-1.7.14 returns 64 files when there are >470 files in 
this directory.

c) Physical machine running Archlinux, 3.15.5 kernel, wine-1.7.13 works 
correctly and shows all the files. So this looks to be a FreeBSD 
specific issue.

Is this a known issue, and if so, are any workarounds?

Thanks,
