Originally I did not understand how this was a case of missing
dependency when configure was being used to disable optional wine
code. However your explanation makes sense.

For the OP these options most likely can be applied to wine with
limited impact on the rest of the system by placing them into

/etc/portage/package.use for app-emulation/wine only. Instead of
adding the USE flags to the /etc/make.conf
