Tried to run the executable:

1677 ~/Work/Wine/WinelibTest$ ls -l WinelibTest
lrwxrwxrwx    1 jto      jto            13 Apr 19 17:37 WinelibTest ->
/usr/bin/wine
1678 ~/Work/Wine/WinelibTest$ WinelibTest
Invoking /wine  ...
Wine failed with return code 127

and the shared object:

1679 ~/Work/Wine/WinelibTest$ WINEPRELOAD=WinelibTest.so wine
Wine called with no arguments.
Invoking /opt/wine/bin/wine.bin  ...

but without success.

Sorry to be so thick, but I must be missing something really simple here.
