--- Comment #11 from Damjan Jovanovic damjan.jov@gmail.com 2009-10-27 12:53:41 --- Git is very close to 1.1.32, it probably won't work any differently.
I just tried 1.1.32, and "autoconf" works for me. Are you running it from the wine-1.1.32 directory, ie. the one the VERSION file is in?
Then again maybe it is some 64 bit thing (I've never used a 64 bit desktop, and don't look forward to it :-). If you are really struggling, I could send you a patch that covers configure as well, then you wouldn't have to run autoconf.
