To follow up my own question, this wound up being a case where wine did 
indeed work correctly with XrandR without any configuration parameters 
or recompile neeeded, however evidently gnome is non compliant. I'd 
tried with both metacity and sawfish and I had the same problem. I 
recently gave it a shot in E17. It worked fine. Wonderfully in fact. 
Changing resolutions didn't cause X to crash on game restarts, game 
played well. I'll take my minor problems to the appropriate gnome list 
and see what they have to say.
