[Bug 43492] New: Improve 64-Bit exe error message

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=43492

Bug ID: 43492
           Summary: Improve 64-Bit exe error message
           Product: Wine
           Version: 2.14
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: trivial
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
          Assignee: [e-mail]
          Reporter: [e-mail]
      Distribution: ---

Here are the last 2 lines of the log I get when trying to run a 64-Bit EXE in
Wine :

err:process:create_process 64-bit application L"pathToExe" not supported in
32-bit prefix
wine: Bad EXE format for pathToExe.

These 2 lines tell me that there is an issue with the EXE, but only the first
actually gives me useful information. The second is more confusing than
anything. My suggestion is to remove it. This would mean the most important
message would be more visible.

Is this really an issue? The problem at hand is pretty clear.

It was certainly confusing for me at first, it took me a while to figure out
what the issue was. "Bad EXE format" is pretty vague.
I think the most important message (with the keywords 64-Bit and 32-Bit wine
prefix) should be at the end, where it's the most visible.

At least, it's definitely a duplicate message that should (imo) be cleaned up
eventually. Definitely not high priority though.
