[...] I also build Wine on an amd64 system (running gentoo/ amd64), no problems. But there's one thing I noticed a while ago: Wine continues to compile and install even if some of the DLLs won't compile. I had this a few times in the past, and ended up with a basically working Wine install that missed a few DLLs, mostly OpenGL-related stuff. Maybe something like that happens to you? Just check that all DLLs are built and in place, and make sure there were no errors during compile (like I said, with some DLLs, Wine just continues to build even though errors appear)...
Correct, wine will compile and run without a lot of features and never warn you that they don't exist. See this wiki page for an example of what your include/config.h file should probably look like:
http://wiki.winehq.org/Recommended_Packages
I just added the Fedora Core 5 and Ubuntu Dapper sections yesterday, and I believe that they are at least 95% accurate, although I might have missed one somewhere. If someone can add the package names required for a gentoo build (or possibly create and maintain wine-cvs packages with all of the necessary deps???), it would probably help out many users trying to compile from source.

IMHO, wine-cvs with all packages is not a good idea. I'm testing xubuntu and i do not want to install kde/gnome. Using multiple packages (wine-kde-cvs / wine-gnome-cvs / ...) are hard to maintain. And what about the different audio-driver? Even more difficult is the OpenGL-Part (mesa / nvidia / ati)
I split the List in the Wiki to make clear, for which dlls which packages are needed. The split is not complete yet, and IMHO the List is also wrong (examples: libusb-dev, libqt3-mt-dev)
Feel free to update Fedora similar.

Gentoo users have a Wine ebuild to build from CVS, with version major '9999'
Simply put, you install the latest Wine CVS like this:
emerge =wine-9999
and it also pulls all deps.
