Hopeful progress running Bastion?

With support for DotNet40 with WINE 1.5.5, I've become hopeful and tried to run Bastion again.

Made a clean wineprefix. Did winetricks dotnet35, then manually installed XNAframework 3.1

After that I ran the game. My screen started flickering and displaying boxes (signs that it is trying to change resolution I think), and then... Black screen.
Would that count as progress? Before, it would just crash. Here's the output:
Console output

Anyone thinking it could be made to work, now?

There is now a native linux client for Bastion. It is available for whatever price you are ready to pay in the last Humble Indie Bundle.

"winetricks xna31" seems like a simpler recipe, though I haven't
tried it with bastion.

Where did you get Bastion? The Steam demo?

There's also a version for Chrome that works fine on Linux,
