	But you are running an application - winecfg; winecfg definitely isn't 
replacement for wineprefixcreate.

	Better (and I think proper) way:

WINEPREFIX=$PATH_TO_NEW_WINEPREFIX wineboot

	Have no idea if current docs/FAQ/Wiki mention a replacement command for 
deprecated wineprefixcreate but if they don't they should.

And message:

"Note: wineprefixcreate is deprecated and shouldn't be needed anymore.
WINEPREFIX creation and updates now happen automatically when needed."

...should mention a replacement, for example: "Use wineboot instead if you 
need to force Wine prefix creation".
