At any given time, man wine and man wine.conf _might_ be obsolete, and
any other doco might not be, but probably is.  Come to think of it, that
version of wine is obsolete, too.  The error messages are much clearer
now, and lots more bugs have been fixed than have been freshly
committed.  And the config file has moved yet again.  :-)

If that version said it used ~/.winerc, (AKA $HOME/.winerc), it probably
did, so you might try fixing that.
