Packaged Wine might be different for a few reasons:

1) It is a hybrid 32+64 build, which you can't get in one step on Ubuntu 
12.04 anymore
2) It uses GCC-4.5 (12.04 default is 4.6)
3) It has one small patch for fonts (shouldn't matter in your case)
4) It's built in a clean environment on the build daemon
5) It's installed and run out of tree.
