For kfreebsd, wine 1.2 has the same problem, except in a different
place. Here's a new patch. Again I verified it works by running a
simple windows program.

For the mingw32 stuff, I got this error when trying to install your package:

Unpacking mingw-w32 (from mingw-w32_0~20100726-0.1_all.deb) ...
dpkg: error processing mingw-w32_0~20100726-0.1_all.deb (--install):
 trying to overwrite '/usr/i586-mingw32msvc/include/mbstring.h', which
is also in package mingw32-runtime 3.13-1
