Was this dropped? On my laptop (a 600mhz Pentium with 128mb of ram, so not too pokey) attempting to build the winetest binary actually kills the build dead. It ends up attempting to feed ~20mb of data to gas which doesn't make it very happy. I guess I misphrased it - it's not for slower machines, it's for machines with less memory.
I have recently built wine on a P1-133 with 64MB of memory (with success). You should never be out of memory with enough swap.
In my case it is a free space on the "/" filesystem which I get running out of. Knowing the fact I like to live with a very small amount of a free space on the "/" I should complain only to myself.

There's not much reason to run the entire winetest binary on Wine itself, so why do we always build it ?
Because code that doesn't get built rots very quickly. You can disable it in your tree, but the default should be to build it.
And how exactly can I disable it? By editing wineinstall script?
