Hello folks,

for completeness I've checked macOS package as well using online virus scan
service.

It seems multiple engines (10/68) detect Wine binaries built with GNU C99 6.2.1
20161118 mingw-w64 as virus.

Result with same binary built on my Fedora Linux host with Fedora MinGW
7.3.0-1.fc28:

-> 3/70 detected.
