Well I think you have better chances of getting an answer on wine-devel, as I
think only a few developers read wine-users. 
>do I need to un-install my present wine installation?
Yes, but you can leave .wine and your fake windows installation, if you use one.
The old config should "Just work", if it doesn't just use winesetuptk to make a
new one.
I don't know  how to solve your problem, but it would be a good idea if you just
installed
the latest CVS version.
If you really want the latest RPM, you can get it here
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/wine/wine-20031016-mdk.i586.rpm?download
but the CVS would be a better solution, as the binary is stripped of all debug
symbols, so it's harder to debug with a rpm version.
