If an app installs msvcrt, use it before Wine's builtin one?

I used the default values of documentation/samples/config. If those need
changes, it's best to do so there.

Then those people use rpms or debs. And in that case, it's usually
already configured out of the box if the packager knows what he's doing.
Only if you want to use a native partition (not the recommend thing to
do btw) you need to tweak the config, or if you have a howto for a
particular app, in which case you'll get excerpts from config.
