Noticed something I thought I would share so that others don't scratch their head wondering about it if they try the same. I updated my system to Oneiric, and decided to recompile Wine. I tried making use of the corei7 optimizations in gcc 4.6 and found that, while a lot of stuff worked (ex. Steam), other things (like DirectX games) did not. So, as always... don't expect things to work when turning on optimizations.
