If you are running Wine 1.5.27 and replacing advapi32 like you've described (using the old version) then that will result in the patches being useless, as most of the changes in the patches are inaccessible if you use the old GetNamedSecurityInfoW. Do you have extended file system attributes enabled on your system? Having xattr support disabled is pretty much the only way to break the patches on new versions of Wine. I have no clue how you've managed to get things to work without using the new advapi32 dll, but I would like to find that out as it might lead to a simplification of the patches. What filesystem are you using for your home directory?
