Drive C: is not necessarily the truly central drive. I have seen Windows installs that installed on D: and have C: as a permanently mounted network share. To assume that drive C: is always what it is... is blasphemy. However, Wine does make this assumption, and probably the patch would be appropriate. Just throwing that out there. However, I have also seen wine installs onto a network where the WINEPREFIX is a network share so that multiple people can use the same program.
This is true. I've seen a Windows box at work which has the system on the E: drive and no C: drive at all. WHAT.
That said, is there any program in the world that would balk at installing on C:?
No, and Vista now defaults to always reassigning the system drive to C:\ - it's not bad for us to copy that behavior.
