I don't know how you did it, but you are missing a symbolic link.
Wine's builtin user.dll is actually a symbolic link in prefix/lib
named libuser.so that names libuser32.so to do its work for it.
(prefix is /usr/local unless somebody monkeys with it, so let's just
call it /usr/local/lib).  By removing that link, I can get that error,
and I can fix it too:

regress is just a script that runs an old 16 bit version of juno, the
only app I had handy that uses user.dll.
