	Actually this isn't big trouble. By doing few reverse regression tests I was 
able to find what patches I need to apply to wine-0.9 to compile it 
successfully on modern system (see my answer to Remi G. for more 
information).
	I think that we should have instructions explaining how to do reverse 
regression tests (for example in http://wiki.winehq.org/RegressionTesting ). 
This may help users to solve such problems without asking for help at 
wine-users.
	I can prepare such instructions for the wiki. But I have no idea how to do 
this, I even don't know what tags I need to use in text. If anyone can help 
with this, please contact with me privately and we discuss details. Thanks.
