So, when 0.9.9 is good, you should use this release and get it compiled
without errors, before starting with "git bisect".

You need a lot of dev-packages to compile wine with all options.
More infos in "documentation/PACKAGING" and
http://wiki.winehq.org/Recommended_Packages
(You do not need all Audio-Drivers)

Hm. I had no need to do regression-testing before. 
Then we need to figure it out, how to do that in easy steps and update
our docs.

Another Hint:
You can use without installing / uninstalling each turn, but you must be
sure, that you uninstalled the prev. wine-version first:

When your are in the directory, where you compiled wine, a
"./wine yourapp.exe" will find all required files.

./configure && make clean && make depend && make
./wine 'c:\test.exe'
