jre, has this been removed from the Debian Wine package? Would you like an upstream bug filed?
The latest version in Debian repos is 1.7.55-4 (on Stretch and Sid), which still contains the line with PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC. If someone here is motivated enough to improve those packages and/or to file bug reports for all the individual issues, I am aware of several other problems besides the PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC environment variable, which should be fixed too.
This https://packages.debian.org/stretch/wine shows 1.8-rc3.
Various autogenerated files (unicode tables, OpenGL extension tables, wineserver request tables) are regenerated during the build process, which potentially introduces new bugs / incompatibilities not present in official WineHQ builds.
That should not be a problem if they want to regenerate from Unicode data, as we depend on particular versions of those that don't change once released. But sure, there's no need to do that in practice.
