Maybe it is.  In that case, look at .wine/config
[x11drv]
"Display"

That entry is commented out in the sample config, but if it is not
commented, Wine will use that in preference to the environment variable,
but it will give a warning if warnings are not disabled and DISPLAY is
set:

[whit at giftie whit]$ wine cmdl.exe
x11drv: Can't open display: :1.0
[whit at giftie whit]$ export DISPLAY=:0.0
[whit at giftie whit]$ wine cmdl.exe
x11drv: Warning: $DISPLAY variable ignored, using ':1.0' specified in config fil
e
x11drv: Can't open display: :1.0
[whit at giftie whit]$ sed 's/"Display"/; "Display"/' .wine/config|safe .wine/confi
g
[whit at giftie whit]$ grep isplay .wine/config
; Name of X11 display to use
; "Display" = ":1.0"
[whit at giftie whit]$ wine cmdl.exe
/cmdl.exe/
arg 0: /cmdl.exe/
[whit at giftie whit]$ tty
/dev/vc/3
[whit at giftie whit]$ cat /dev/vcc/3|fold|trail >oops

I normally leave it commented out in .wine/config, so of course setting
DISPLAY works for me every time.  Sorry if I have confused or insulted
you unnecessarily.
