All done.

WoW64 seems to be possible with an adjusted script (my previous tests as
reported were all with the script removed): This requires wine64 and the
64-bit wineserver to be in PATH. The 32-bit wineserver must be neither
in PATH nor in bindir (as configured on build).

32-bit prefixes are possible with WINEARCH=win32, or permanently by
installing wineserver:i386 instead of wineserver:amd64.

With wineserver:i386 64-bit prefixes are not possible. wine64 depends on
wineserver from the same arch.

If there are any issues with 32-bit prefixes run by wineserver:amd64
remains to be seen.

Remaining issues:
W: wine64: binary-without-manpage usr/bin/wine64
