Yes, though there's recently been some activity on the NetBSD bug:
http://www.netbsd.org/cgi-bin/query-pr-single.pl?number=42420

though they're of the opinion that it's a wine bug:
 Actually, I take it back, the only thing the cited Wine configure test
 actually checks for is whether rpaths are accepted (which should be
 the case on any ELF system) and whether they're allowed to contain $.


 Since rpaths are apparently allowed to contain anything (even control
 characters) the configure test is absolutely worthless. There's no
 point attempting to disable $ORIGIN in binutils since it looks as if
 binutils doesn't know or need to know anything about it.


 As I said some time back, the configure test should be changed
 upstream to actually test for the feature, in which case the problem
 goes away.
