Some background: the Wine package was using the /etc/sysctl.d/ conf file before
there even was a standard for how to name them.  After that happened I renamed
the file in the package to 30-wine.conf, however I never got around to adding
code that would properly move the existing conf file.  Since the package
manager leaves old conf files around rather than deleting them, the end result
is that you probably have two wine files in there, one properly named and one
not.

The recent brouhaha about /etc/sysctl.d/ has prompted me to finally update the
code and remove the old conf file properly - it should be coming as a stable
release update for Ubuntu.
