I think Christine's attitude toward Dave is due to her friendship with Steve Winwood.
It could go back even further. Christine was dating Spencer Davis when he "discovered" Steve Winwood. At the time, Dave Mason was a roadie for the Spencer Davis Group.

In any event, I'm sure that she has her own reasons for not liking Dave Mason. Sure, there's the whole Dave Mason/Steve Winwood thing, but on the other hand, Mick Fleetwood was good friends with Dave Mason, and I bet Christine feels closer to Mick Fleetwood than Steve Winwood. That's not to say that the thing about Dave Mason that rubs Christine the wrong way isn't the same thing that rubs Steve Winwood the wrong way. I just have a hard time believing that Christine would be so...so...so gangstabitch.

Their history goes back to before either was known. Their paths have crossed many times over their lifetimes. They are two very different people who value very different things, and they clearly annoy the piss out of each other.
