 Wine 1.1.5 (which is no longer current; 1.1.7 is out) is a devel
 release. The general pkgsrc policy is to package stable releases,
 unless there's a pretty strong reason to do otherwise. Which I'm
 pretty sure is not the case here.
 
 Is it worth creating a separate wine-devel package? (And, given the
 size and complexity of wine, would it get updated often enough to be
 worthwhile?)
