The plan is to have good enough defaults that we shouldn't need the
first step at all to run winecfg. In other words, we should have a
"working" Wine without a configuration step. This Wine may not run
games, but it should run winecfg and regedit.

Yes, winecfg still needs a lot of work. I think the version in the tree
is fairly up-to-date.
