I downloaded today's git, compiled --enable-win64, and installed. 
>>The command "wine64 notepad" produces notepad, and everything seems fine. 
>>But then I tried installing Dragon NaturallySpeaking, which is a program made for both 32-bit and 64-bit systems. 
>>I go to the DNS11 folder, type "wine64 setup"

By the way, I have a small program called notepad2, which is not installable and runs from a single small exe. and I tried to run that with the usual command
wine64 notepad2
And nothing happens. 
So it's not just an installation problem.
