For most apps it will be a matter of adding a configure check for lcms2
and then recompiling. This is not the case for Wine as you have pointed out.

At this point there's probably still a substantial number of users on
distributions that don't include lcms2, and trying to support both doesn't
make the source any prettier.

So it doesn't seem unreasonable to wait a little longer.
