I have great difficulties figuring out what you mean.

For one, there's no such thing as /emul/ia32-linux/usr/share/wine in the
packages, there should probably not even be a /emul/ia32-linux/usr/share
on the system. No packages built for squeeze/sid even contain
/emul/ia32-linux anymore. (My lenny backports on people.debian.org may
use /emul/ia32-linux/usr/lib, though; perhaps there's something broken
in them, for all I know, but if you're using them, try to use the
packages in sid instead.)

Also, wine.inf is not a symlink, and to my knowledge, it never has been.

Error code c0000020 (STATUS_INVALID_FILE_FOR_SECTION) is a type of
critical failure in attempting to load a PE image, but the above isn't
enough to understand where it comes from. Unless, I suppose, this is a
problem of Wine not finding the correct fakedlls or something.

Anyway, from the looks of it, your system is seriously broken and you
need to repair it before attempting to run Wine. At a minimum,
completely uninstall Wine, completely remove the obsolete
/emul/ia32-linux and other stuff lingering around that shouldn't exist,
and maybe then try reinstalling Wine.

If the packages themselves had been this broken, I'd probably have
received bug reports about that already, from users with less broken
setups. (At least I hope so...)
