Marcus, the problem is that Linux applications do not understand
DOS style contents of the TEMP variable.
This what is happening:

$ TEMP=C:\\TEMP ps2pdf -
**** Unable to open the initial device, quitting.

A solution within wine would be to unset all such variables before
launching the Unix executable. My guess is that it is unlikely to 
be accepted, similar changes for DOS paths in the program arguments 
where dropped in favour of the tool "winepath". The external 
solution (script) is the way to go.
