Disabling exec-shield (either via setarch i386 or with the proc thing) works sometimes, depending on the loading addresses assigned to libraries. If something (libc, libm, libdl, etc.) uses that address, nothing Win32 will be usable. When exec-shield is disabled, new libraries will be assigned loading addresses starting at the lower value possible, but already assigned ones (via prelinking) will still keep theirs, hence possibly blocking execution.
I'll test tomorrow disabling prelinking.
Are you saying prelinking can break wine? If so then this is rather bad, prelink is being rolled out on every distro.
