The separation will be done by putting dlls in a separate directory
(usually /usr/lib/wine) which is a lot cleaner than creating 150 files
in /usr/lib, no matter how they are named.

Wine dll path won't be added to /etc/ld.so.conf. But in any case the
plan is that dlls in /usr/lib/wine are named without the lib prefix to
make it clear you can't link to them.

I don't. If you really want to do something about it, consider working
on dll separation so that we can finally put all dlls in the right
place.
