 Although it's not because it stands for 'standard' :X
 
 Strangely enough, I can still not reproduce the exact message -- have I
 missed a libc setting or some specific value of WINEDEBUG not covered
 under 'all'?
 
 zeurkous@laagdrave:~$ export WINEDEBUG='all'

 At that moment, wine hangs eating 80% of cpu0, and I have to interrupt it:
 
 ^C

 But:
 
 zeurkous@laagdrave:~% ps auwwx | grep 'wine'

 That sure does the job, though:
 
 zeurkous@laagdrave:~% ps auwwx | grep 'wine'
 zeurkous 20075  0.0  0.0  104   552 ttyp6   RN+  10:17PM 0:00.00 grep wine
 zeurkous@laagdrave:~%
 
 The '.wine' directory is still not there, though. Creating it manually
 causes winecfg to work correctly, but still no pthreads in Unreal.
 
 While I'm at it,
 http://mail-index.netbsd.org/netbsd-help/2007/01/14/0000.html lists
 several more PR's. Propose we close them (if they aren't already, don't
 remember the status and I'm too lazy to check :^) and keep this one open,
 as it has the most information.
 
 I have done /somewhat/ extensive reconfiguration of mk.conf(5) (and my
 -shiny- new pkgsrc.conf), so it might qualify as the cause of the missing
 pthread warnings. Please indicate if it would be useful to post both; I
 believe they're not only readable, but fit for human consumption...
 
 The final piece of information I can give you right now is that it doesn't
 matter if I build wine with sane _and_ cups or without both; I've not
 tried disabling OpenGL, but since it's an Unreal /server/ I'll see what I
 can do. The results of that new build will probably be my final report for
 now.
