That's the default WINEPREFIX value so that command would not create a new
prefix unless you move the existing one out of the way first. Also "winecfg
wineboot" doesn't make any sense. winecfg is fine, as is wineboot; passing a
"wineboot" parameter to winecfg does nothing interesting.

You'll probably want to use a different WINEPREFIX value (e.g.
WINEPREFIX=~/.wine-test) to be able to delete the new prefix after you're done
with testing.

You might need to reinstall the game in the new prefix if it doesn't work
otherwise.

Well, no. That message means the prefix is 64 bit but the Wine version you
built is 32-bit only. To workaround that either make a WoW64 Wine build or
create a new prefix as suggested above.

Unfortunately I don't see any clue in the attached log. Can you try to get a
+tid,seh trace instead?
