If I go to any https://*.winehq.org website I get the certificate for 
test.winehq.org , otherwise you could use the firefox https anywhere to force 
https on.

Or better yet, force automatic redirect to https, with 
Strict-Transport-Security:
https://hacks.mozilla.org/2010/08/firefox-4-http-strict-transport-security-force-https/

If winehq can't get more ips for every subdomain (ssl sucks), would the 
solution be moving it to https://winehq.org/{bugs,appdb,test,source} ?

Cheers,
Maarten
