Hmm, you and Paolo explained to me on 2009-08-21 that Wine should be
considered as a platform of its own. But I still don't fully agree. Can
you first report the bug to the Wine people and come back to patching
gnulib only if they are not fixing it within two months?

I agree with this. Alternatively we could just make sure that code paths in configure that differ for Wine and Windows do all tests using cache variables, so that these can be tweaked with config.site when people use Wine.

If we don't do that, we should anyway use no mercy for old versions and un-patch it as soon as it is fixed in Wine.
