Also a pita for people who advise typing things like 'wineserver -k'?
Are they really supposed to know to look in this directory?

Why is it in an arch-specific subdirectory when wineserver is designed
to be architecture independent (same interface, and potentially the
same server instance, used with 32-bit and 64-bit clients)?
