Danny, hope this helps:
1. CLEANUP
[root@groundstate austin]# urpme wine
bash-2.05b$ rm -fr .wine
2. FRESH INSTALL FROM COOKER
[root@groundstate austin]# urpmi wine
installing /var/cache/urpmi/rpms/libwine1-20020804-1mdk.i586.rpm
/var/cache/urpmi/rpms/wine-20020804-1mdk.i586.rpm
3. WHAT'S IN MY PATH
bash-2.05b$ wi [TAB]
wine wineclipsrv wineserver winicontoppm wish
wine.bin wineconsole wineshelllink winpos wish8.3
bash-2.05b$ ls -l /usr/bin/win*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 526 Aug 19 08:19 /usr/bin/wine
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 15096 Aug 19 08:19

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 13160 Jul 7 14:02
/usr/bin/winicontoppm
4. HERE'S THE SCRIPT
bash-2.05b$ more /usr/bin/wine
#!/bin/sh
# -*- Mode: sh -*-

true_binary=/usr/bin/wine.bin
default=/etc/wine/wine.reg
configurator=/usr/share/wine/wine-config
winedir=${HOME}/.wine/
if [ ! -d ${winedir} ];then
mkdir -p ${winedir}
cp ${default} ${winedir}/config
if [ -x /usr/bin/perl ];then
perl ${configurator} ${winedir}/config || :
fi
fi
${true_binary} "$@"
5. LET'S TRY WINE-CONFIG
bash-2.05b$ mkdir .wine
bash-2.05b$ cp /etc/wine/config .wine
bash-2.05b$ cp .wine/config .wine/config-orig
bash-2.05b$ /usr/share/wine/wine-config .wine/config
bash-2.05b$ diff .wine/config .wine/config-orig
33c33
< "Path" = "/var/lib/wine"
---
> "Path" = "/mnt/windows"
6. LET'S TRY THE DEFAULT SETUP
bash-2.05b$ rm -fr .wine
bash-2.05b$ wine
cp: cannot stat `/etc/wine/wine.reg': No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat `/home/austin/.wine//config': No such file or directory
wineserver: /home/austin/.wine/config is not a valid registry file
wine client error:(nil): recvmsg: Connection reset by peer
bash-2.05b$ cat .wine/config
bash-2.05b$
Thanks for your efforts! Hope we can fix this.
