I hate to jump in again, but isn't wine a little backwards from other
releases when dealing with a fresh tar.gz install?

I realize wineinstall will do the work for you, but aren't people just
used to ./configure - make - make install?

I think they do that, then they're stuck.  configure always tells you to
do a 'make depend && make', why not throw in a little blrub "Hey, if
you're running this for the first time, run wineinstall instead." ?  

Or is wineinstall not doing what I think it is (setting up initial
environment)?

Ok, I'll be quiet for a few months again :)
