There are several kernels for Fedora, too and just one prebuild wine for
all of them. The compiler seems more important than the kernel. You can
use it with your custom kernel also. Perhaps anyone on the list can tell
me why a selfcompiled version should be better?

I personally use 1019 because there are some drawbacks with 1201 in IE
(e.g. the buttons might have no icons). But I tested with 1201 also.

Very good, so far.

Good to know, thanks for the test!

No, I think you can now just try it. I am definitely interested in your
results for including new software in WineTools.
