I'll try, but not knowing what's your last known setup it might be not
that complete.

Drives and devices are symlinks in ~/.wine/dosdevices, pointing to the
Unix one. Devices names for drives (like cdrom) are of the "d::" format,
with a double colon, while other DOS devices are just the name ("com1",
"lpt1"), all pointing to the corresponding /dev entry.

Setting the path env-variable for Windows apps? Or app-specific paths?
If the latter, wouldn't it be easier to provide a .reg to do that
instead of exporting the whole registry?

Those (dlloverrides) are still in config, look at
documentation/samples/config. You can set them globally or on a per-app
basis. They can also be set as a Unix env-var, WINEDLLOVERRIDES, for
quick one shot deals.
