I don't think it is odd.  The warping mechanism places the cursor at the 
middle of the window.  If there is no window handle the window coordinates 
are not initialised.  If they are not initialised the values used in the 
warp could be any value which a short data type can hold.  Before those 
values were hugely negative.  Now they are probably hugely positive.  My 
patch (with Ove's DISCL_NONEXCLUSIVE correction) should place your cursor 
at the middle of the window.

There is complete agreement between Ove and me that the window handle 
should be initialized.  If we were dealing with memory addresses instead 
of window coordinates WineX would have crashed with an 
EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION.
