--- Comment #3 from Sebastian Lackner <sebastian at fds-team.de> ---
@Josh: How does the wineserver block your test from exiting? Do you start the
wineserver explicitly? If yes, you can just pass the -p0 flag. Otherwise it
shouldn't block your tests because wineserver acts as a daemon and immediately
forks into the background.

If you just want to make sure the wineserver is killed after each test
(normally shouldn't be necessary, and will probably be a bit slower than
keeping the wineserver persistent for a couple seconds), why not use something
like:

wine ./unittest.exe
wineserver -k

Of course something like an environment WINE_SERVER_FLAGS would be nice
(especially for users that don't want a permanent wineserver, like in comment
1), but I don't see why it should be impossible to have a similar effect with
the existing commandline options. Can you probably provide a bit more details?
