I would love to agree with you, but when I build Wine, it has to have a LD_LIBRARY_PATH or the dylibs cannot be found.  If I could figure out why this is so, I might be able to fix it.  I agree that the proper thing to do is DYLD_LIBRAY_PATH but that has not worked, yet.

None, except this one.  If you doubt it, I can send you screen shots where the library files are not found. This is also true of the Fink build, so I'm not alone with the problem.

Again, this is weird and maybe it is my system and not Wine.  However, adding the line should not hurt anything.
