This should be OK, but the problem is that winepath binary is not available as
we have discussed earlier. You could perhaps try if a copy of winepath binary
from wine could be of some use. You can also contact Crossover makers, why
they strip out winepath binary - perhaps this is provided somewhere else?

That is odd. Using newWINE=FALSE should try to use ~/.wine/config file. Do you
have this file?
