One note... if you don't know how to build from source, look at instructions BEFORE doing it. If you have wine installed by debian package, you can either issue a "sudo make install" on wine tree, which "should" overwrite debian files, or uninstall debian package before; I'd suggest the last solution, as I don't know if wine's make install will put files on same places as debian package. WARNING, be sure to not have 2 wine versions installed on different places, if you don't know how to deal with it.... you'll run into troubles otherwise.
If you would like to leave the debian installed version of Wine alone, another alternative is to skip the last step of installing wine. Instead, when you want to run the compiled version, just explicitly type in the full path to the start script:
/my/wine/tree/wine myprogram.exe
