The truth is, that wine outputs the first line ("...wait timed out in thread 001c, blocked by 0041...") only once and after that only the 2nd line repeats every 60sec ("...wait timed out in thread 0045, blocked by 0044..."). Don't know if that's normal in these cases or both lines should repeated.
Thread 0041 is probably just a bit slow at some point then, but it does sound like it eventually releases the lock. It would be interesting to figure out what's taking so long, but it's probably not the main problem.
For a proper deadlock you'd have at least two threads waiting for each other, that doesn't seem to be the case here. It looks more like 0044 is either busy doing something expensive or dead. The backtraces for those threads aren't very helpful unfortunately, the stacks for both of them look damaged / altered. You may have more luck with something like a +relay,+seh,+tid log.
So what should i do now to be more helpful? I think that kernel has some infrastructure for logging of locks or detecting deadlock or whatever... Is there an equivalent in wine??
I guess you're referring to lockdep. AFAIK there's no such thing in Wine, but it would probably be a useful tool on occasion. For the reasons mentioned above, I don't think it would have been much help for this specific bug though.
