Thanks very much. I have wine-0.9.9, so I gather it's a later
version and will start off by waking up everything and trying
wineconfig. I can always get back to hack that. It seems like code
has got ahead of docs in a bad way there at the moment.

The main thing I want to run is a library program that's actually
on the wine site as running under wine. Not demanding on graphics
or resources.
