if you built from source there should be a default config file in:
src/wine-20041201/documentation/samples/config
just copy it to your .wine dir.

as long as you don't have a config file and set up using of native dlls there 
(or pass it at the command line), wine won't use your native dlls as far as I 
know.

DirectX is a low level API, i.e. requires direct harware access (correct me if 
I'm wrong), therefore this is probably no good idea.

My understanding is, that if you use your dlls only on one machine, it's ok.
