Parallel builds can greatly reduce the overall build time on modern multi-core processors.
Fall back to two parallel builds in the case where nproc is unavailable, most modern processors have at least two cores.
Use the 'NPROC' value defined by the environment if it is not null.

I don't think this will do what you want ;)
Also, I'm pretty sure &> isn't Posix. You'd want something like: if type nproc > /dev/null 2>&1
Actually, shouldn't we first discuss if we really want to keep wineinstall as part of the repo before we merge any improvements? I don't know how many people are using it, but it lacks many important features. It does not install any dependencies, does not warn about problems during configure, and also does not support a proper wow64 build, ... Basically, it could be replaced by a one-liner "./configure && make && su root -c 'make install'"... Do we really want to keep it?
I didn't mind keeping it as long as it was just sitting there, but if we are going to start adding complexity or bikeshedding it, then it's probably better to remove it.
