Not yet. Windows9x mode should work again as well as threading and TLS, but there are still some open issues, mainly with exception handling and file access. Exception handling was completely broken and is now mostly working, but sometimes gets stuck in a loop generating exceptions and eventually overflowing the stack. I'll submit patches once Wine passes the most important unit tests, unless someone already wants to have a look at them of course...
