warning to wine on cygwin experimenters

[Anonymous]

I got cygwin to compile wine to the point where wine-install tried to run regedit on 
winedefault.reg.

I should have been paying closer attention.

The good news is that the wine regedit.exe works like a charm.  The bad news is that 
it overwrote my actual windows registry with the bunk values in winedefault.reg.

Not gonna be very easy to roll back.

So... WATCH OUT!  That last step's a doozy.

we need to add some checking to the configure and wineinstall system so
that if the host or target platform is Mingw/Cygwin then we can skip
winedefault.reg
