Package: wine
Version: 1.6.1-12
Severity: important

revision 11 indeed fixed the issue in #733648, but introduced the 
opposite problem

When executing winecfg on a 32 bit wineprofile, it fails with

$winecfg
wine: '/home/francesco/.wine' is a 32-bit installation, it cannot 
support 64-bit applications.

Moreover, winecfg also ignores the WINEARCH variable:

$env WINEARCH=win32 winecfg
wine: '/home/francesco/.wine' is a 32-bit installation, it cannot 
support 64-bit applications.

and fails on the default 32 bit wineprofile (see 
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=734252 ):
env WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.wine32" WINEARCH=win32 winecfg
wine: '/home/francesco/.wine32' is a 32-bit installation, it cannot 
support 64-bit applications.

I would suggest to read inside the profile whether it is 32 or 64 bit, 
for instance with
test -z "$WINEPREFIX" && WINEPREFIX="$HOME/.wine"
WINEARCH=$(cat "$WINEPREFIX/system.reg"|grep "#arch"|sed -e s/'#arch='/''/)
and to call the 32 bit or 64 bit binary accordingly.

Regards
