The original spell was 'Wine'.  I'm working on a newer spell, 'wine' 
which I'm still testing, hence, why I haven't removed the older spell. 
The problem that you ran into is largely caused by me being forced to 
use windows for my p4 edits.  Windows does not distinguish between a 
directory named 'Wine' or 'wine'.  As far as it is concerned, they are 
the same directory.  So sometimes what will happen, is I'll end up with 
the 'Wine' DETAILS file getting mixed up with the other 'wine' DETAILS 
file as I'm doing my edits.

As for the registry, in 'wine' that was a mistake in that a change I 
made to the POST_INSTALL didn't get copied over, and uploaded to p4.

Both these fixes should be in p4 now.  I'm beginning to think about 
removing the original wine spell.  Since the newer version seems more 
stable now, but I don't think it's quite ready yet.
