Should Wine really try the installed prefix first? It seems to me that it should try it last instead. After all, if you change the path you would expect your change to have an effect, no?
No, you don't want changing the PATH suddenly to start breaking your applications.
Plus checking the installed prefix first assumes that whichever version of wine is started (e.g. /home/fgouget/bin/wine) is the same as that of /usr/bin/wineserver!
Yes of course, if you compiled it with /usr/bin as prefix it assumes that /usr/bin is where its wineserver is. If you don't want that you have to change the prefix, or set WINESERVER explicitly.

well, I think more to the point is that something says what steps need to be done to run a specific version. The current instructions just say to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH, which isn't really correct. So, just for the record, all you have to do is set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to srcdir:srcdir/dlls and WINESERVER to srcdir/server/wineserver? Or do you need access to things like winebuild?
