Okay I made a make uninstall of my previous install, removed the source tree 
and unpacked a fresh one. I did wineinstall as my user. It recompiled and 
installed but the damned thing failed again at the registry setup stage. It 
said it couldn't find programs/regedit/regedit.so.exe in 
/usr/src/local/wine-*/miscemu (that's my src dir).

Oviously, attempting to start notepad.exe still gives me the XIO:  fatal IO 
error 0 (Success) on X server ":0.0" error.

I had exactly the same result with my previous install approach (make 
everything as root, then run wineinstall as my user).  In other words in 
back to square 1. The readme quick install instructions do not work for me.

Let me know if you can think of something else. I'll see what I can find in 
the docs.
