freetype upgrade for -current May 9 breaks wine

After upgrading freetype to latest 2.10.2 version, wine applications either don't start or start partially (my wine version is Eric's wine-5.6 package).

Trying to run a wine app from terminal gave the message that freetype couldn't be found.
Downgraded to freetype-2.10.1 and all is well...

The sole difference between the old and new version seems to be that /usr/lib/libfreetype.so.6.17.1 is replaced with libfreetype.so.6.17.2.

Any clue to why wine can't handle that change?

Oh, and yes - I run -current multilib, and I did create a freetype compat32 version and upgraded that, too...latest?d=yIl2AUoC8zA latest?i=MsrrYG7bDlg:VQEqk2X_b7g:F7zBnMy latest?i=MsrrYG7bDlg:VQEqk2X_b7g:V_sGLiP latest?d=qj6IDK7rITs latest?i=MsrrYG7bDlg:VQEqk2X_b7g:gIN9vFwMsrrYG7bDlg
