[Wine] DarWine & OpenGL

The DISPLAY changing is not a bug.  When Xquartz restarts (or starts  
as a different user), a new socket is created in /tmp/launch-XXXX/:0,  
where XXXX is random.

**
rbwmb:~ ryan$ echo $DISPLAY
/tmp/launch-cPFfik/:0
**

Are you setting DISPLAY manually somewhere?  If you are, don't.   
launchd should take care of all that for you.

Regarding the other error: roll your own, compile Wine from source and  
circumvent the Darwine setup.  Not nearly as nice (no winehelper.app),  
but you'll get more help from the forums.
