Ah, thanks for pointing this out. I was looking at the "wine-development"
package which used to be more up-to-date during the last year, but seems its
now exactly the other way round? I'm wondering how users should stay up-to-date
when they have to switch the package inbetween.

I still see a high risk of introducing new problems. See for example the OpenGL
tables, which are generated based on the XML files shipped in the "khronos-api"
package. Last update is from March 2015, but in Wine we had a commit to update
them in April for example.

Also, in order to regenerate various files, they are first replaced with an
"empty" version, then the script is executed - however, not all of those files
are static. They can easily get out of sync with the Wine source tree.
