Wine and glibc 3.2.x

Fri Mar 21 16:38:18 CST 2003

The workaround given does NOT work with the glibc 2.3 provided with the 
current Red Hat 8.0 from UP2DATE

This script and code worked prior to the RedHat glibc upgrade

--- this is winword 
FNAME=`wine -- winepath -l "$1"`
wine -- "/wine/c/Program Files/Microsoft Office/Office/WINWORD.exe" "$FNAME"

--- run dump
