There's something broken with your build, try building from original source
without special flags.

Building original wine-1.2.3 without special flags (other than
--prefix=/usr/local) on my rather up-to-date Gentoo system (gcc 4.4.5) produces
the same problem.

$ wine notepad
wine: created the configuration directory '/home/maz/.wine'
err:rundll32:wWinMain Unable to load L"setupapi"
wine: configuration in '/home/maz/.wine' has been updated.

Also has the drive issue from http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18614

$ winecfg
err:winecfg:open_mountmgr failed to open mount manager err 2

The configure script disables openal, gsm, capi. It finds hal, which is
not actually used by X anymore, but starting hald doesn't seem to make a
difference. Building --without-hal doesn't change anything.

.wine structure is however correctly generated when running with
WINEDEBUG=+relay, also see report in bug 18614

Just to add that when I now attempt to install a game (Temple of Elemental
Evil) via

$ wine d:setup.exe

(d: is the cdrom)

this old bug rears its head

err:ole:TLB_ReadTypeLib Loading of typelib L"C:\Program Files\Common
Files\InstallShield\Professional\RunTime\IsProBE.tlb" failed with error 2
fixme:storage:create_storagefile Storage share mode not implemented.

and the installation aborts with some error message. I think this was reported
fixed with 1.1.24 (compare e.g. bug 18893). The file IsProBE.tlb is in fact not
there in .wine, there is only an iKernel.rgs in this directory. Maybe .wine is
not created correctly after all?

Whatever the cause, it's the same as bug 18614.
