Have you set and override for the DLL in winecfg?

Yes
I have selected, NATIVE then BUILTIN.

The error appears when I have BUILTIN selected and the programs loads msvfw32.dll from c:\windows\system32\

Wine does not load its builtin libraries from c:\windows\system32. Wine's libraries are located in /usr/lib/wine.

Ignore this message. Wine tries all possibilities and of course native PE dll will have a wrong ELF header.

You won't see any error messages. Also you can use WINEDEBUG=+loaddll
