Bug Description

i'm using wine 1.5.15 and have set a menu for the apps loaded by wine. Its done by browsing to the app to get its path.

How to reproduce:
- right-click on Applications
- select "Edit menu"
- go to wine folder
- add to it a new app entry
- browse to the app's exe and validate

Alacarte seems to pick-up the good path, so i validate.
But then when i want to start that app, i get an other path, which fails of course.

Path validated when i have created the menu entry:
/home/oem/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/ ....

But thats what i get when i try to load that app from the menu:
/home/oem/.wine/dosdevices/c:/Program Files/ .....

i've deleted and recreated the app entry, but still get the same issue.
