To be honest, I don't much see the point of this patch myself. If you want to look at the constantness of strings, there was an effort back in Oct 2003 by Daniel Marmier to fix things up so that we can compile Wine with -Wwrite-strings: http://www.winehq.org/hypermail/wine-devel/2003/10/0269.html
I am not sure if this was completed (Daniel did submit a lot of patches to wine-patches back in Oct), but it certainly is a worthy goal. We should probably finish this off, and add the flag by default to CFLAGS.
Daniel, if you read this, do you remember the status? Some pointers on what remains to be done would be appreciated.
