It was done on purpose and knowingly. I read about it on the upstream
mailing list, before seeing the consequences here. Since the manpages
contain arch specific paths I see this as the right solution generally.

The problem is that we can't really make use of the "correct" upstream
buildsystem in Debian, because we ship wrapper scripts in path, without
really knowing if the 32- or the 64-bit version gets installed, or if
they even get co-installed (then the wrapper scripts now default to
32-bit wine and 64-bit wineserver).

However I tend to ignore that as a real problem in the documentation,
see previous mails. I even decided for now to build the
wine64-binary-loader manpage from the unchanged wine-binary-loader
manpage-source.
