When trying to build Wine-1.1.6 (downloaded 10Oct08), I get the following compilation error after entering the make command using gcc-4.0.1:
gcc -c -I. -I. -I../../include -I../../include -D__WINESRC__ -DWINE_UNICODE_API="" -D_REENTRANT -fPIC -Wall -pipe -fno-strict-aliasing -Wdeclaration-after-statement -Wwrite-strings -Wpointer-arith -g -O2 -D__powerpc__ -o port.o port.c
-D__powerpc__? Wine is for x86 only. See the FAQ:

5.2. Can I use Wine on an older Mac without an Intel chip?
No, not even in Linux. Older Macs used PowerPC processors, which are incompatible with code compiled for x86 (Intel and AMD) processors unless the code is run under CPU emulation. Wine Is Not a (CPU) Emulator, nor does it include one.
Wine won't run Windows apps, but it *should* compile. It can then be used to run winelib apps.
That said, it's not a high priority/tested often, which is why I'm trying to get a PPC qemu system setup to test these things...
