If you mean to help out with wine development, you should of course get
the source and build your own.

If you just want to use wine, you should still get the source and build
it yourself, so you will know what the rest of us are talking about by
"read <wine>/README" and "It's in <wine>/documentation/configuring.sgml"

Just install all the program development options of your Mandrake 7.1,
and the -devel extensions of glibc, XFree86, xpm and ncurses, and you
will be fine to build wine from the source.  And please, do read
<wine>/README :-).

from the following locations:

  http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/ALPHA/wine/development/Wine-20010418.tar.gz
  ftp://ftp.infomagic.com/pub/mirrors/linux/sunsite/ALPHA/wine/development/Wine-20010418.tar.gz
  ftp://ftp.fu-berlin.de/unix/linux/mirrors/sunsite.unc.edu/ALPHA/wine/development/Wine-20010418.tar.gz
  ftp://orcus.progsoc.uts.edu.au/pub/Wine/development/Wine-20010418.tar.gz

It should also be available from any other site that mirrors ibiblio.org.
For more download locations, see http://ftpsearch.lycos.com. These
locations also hold pre-built documentation packages in various
formats: wine-doc-html.tar.gz, wine-doc-txt.tar.gz, wine-doc.pdf.gz
and wine-doc.ps.gz.

You can also get the current source directly from the CVS tree. Check
http://www.winehq.com/dev.html for details.
