However, he needs to make sure that library files will be read from that location first as well or the libraries from the installed wine will be read in and cause confusing and erroneous results.  For example the USB support code from Wine does not include dongle support but the built libraries will.

Yes, simple:

[code]
sudo make install

or
su -
make install
exit

[/code]

This will install Wine to the appropriate directories.  This should be done AFTER insuring that your custom build will run!
