Wine doesn't really support unix paths anymore. Please try:
wine "c:\program files\microsoft office\office14\winword.exe"
> env WINEPREFIX="/home/charpent/.wine" wine C:\\windows\\command\

That works because you're using windows style paths.
Still not sure why you would have seen alternative behavior on other
distributions.
Best wishes,
