Just as a quick follow up for others having this problem:
The problem seems to be in the ~/.wine/system.reg in the Spooler stanza.

The difference is that the newly generated functional system.reg has a:
"Start"=dword:00000004
instead of the non-functional old:
"Start"=dword:00000002

Changing that single number (and doing a 'service wine restart' just
for fun) made my wine work again. I don't know why that change would
bring down the entire OS rather than just cause wine to die though.
