Again, I will repeat, Wine 1.2 will be released when AJ feels it is 
ready for release.  Right now, we are in a release cycle.  This may take 
two weeks or two months.  This should NOT take two years (almost the 
time between Wine 1.0 and now.)  So, (and repeating) there is no 
scheduled release date for Wine 1.2.   However,  if major regression 
progress is made, it may be released in the shorter of the two time 
periods I stated.

Now for your problem.  You will have to build from source, the release 
that your program 'likes'.  However, I would also request that you 
build, but do not install the 1.2-rc2 code and see if the program 
'breaks'.  If it does, please, please, and please again, file a bug 
report.  The reason is that we don't want to release Wine 1.2 with any 
regressions or regressions we don't know about.

Thank you.
