LOL.  So it seems that by default I am the current docbook "expert". 
That's almost scary.

Oh well... This leaves us with two options. Both options require that we 
modifiy the config file.

Option 1: Since AFAICT <wineconfig>  is just a comment that serves no 
real purpose we just get rid of it.

Option 2: wrap the config file in

<![CDATA[
....

 ]]>

<! [CDATA[ is a directive to ignore all tags untill ]]>. Unfortunately 
this needs to be embeded in the document that uses it or it won't work. 
So we have two ways of doing this. one way is to modify the config file 
so that they are in it (ugly) or we use a configure script to wrap 
<![CDATA[ and ]]> around the config and create a new file.  (This is not 
something I know how to do, but if it is nessesary I am willing to learn)

My vote (for what its worth ) if <wineconf> is not needed lets just get 
rid of it.
