   You need to specify where the wine libraries are because you'll need
to link the MFC library with them.

   I tried this command on some Winelib sources here and I got 'Could
not find the Wine includes' which is what I expected since th eWine
includes are not here on my computer.
   Are you sure the above command is the exact command you typed? Didn't
you have some quoting problem? Already above I see strange single
quotes.

               ^                    ^

   configure displays the message you got when it finds more than one
command line parameter which is not a known option. I get this error if
I type 'configure foo bar' for instance.
