Wine tries to launch an auxiliary app : the wineserver
(whose function is roughly to manage inter-process
synchronization). It can't execute it, very probably for
the main reason an app can't be executed everywhere,
it's not at the expected location.
The logic for finding the wineserver is in scheduler/client.c
(you will see that you can - for example - set the path to the
wineserver executable in the WINESERVER environment variable)
Wine is searched from the directory it was started from -
my guess is that it's trying to launch from the symbolic link
directory.
Understanding the tools you use helps to make them work.
