[Wine] compiling wine 0.9.41 | FC05 | x86_64

Greetings...

With the end of life for official support for FC05 (early July), I'm now
resigned to compiling key apps by hand for my FC05 box (64-bit,
running on AMD Opteron chips). The gcc compiler is 4.1.1 (which may
also be an issue for some apps). For the most part, this has been only
'somewhat challenging' - primarily because of 'issues' specifying the
right libraries (32- or 64-bit, etc).

Same seems to be the case with compiling wine 0.9.41 (which I've yet
to do successfully). Here is what I've tried so far:

First, following an entry on the wine wiki, set up some symbolic links 
for various libraries

cd /usr/lib
ln -s libfreetype.so.6 libfreetype.so
ln -s libXext.so.6 libXext.so
ln -s libX11.so.6 libX11.so
ln -s libGLU.so.1 libGLU.so

Then ran configure with following (which I pulled off the Wine WIki):

./configure --x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib
--x-includes=/usr/X11R6/include --with-x

followed by the usual make depend, make cycle.

First error 'warning' I get is after ./configure command:


configure: WARNING: No OpenGL library found on this system.
Wine will be build without OpenGL or Direct3D support.

Makes sense there should be problems, since /usr/X11R6/lib and
/usr/X11R6/include don't exist as subdirectories!!

On a FC05 64-bit box, all you have are /usr/X11R6/bin and
/usr/X11R6/lib64

So, what next? Apparently, the Wine Wiki is not correct - at least,
not for FC05 in its current state, not for a 64bit machine, and not for 
wine 0.9.4...

Suggestions? Pointers to the obvious?
