My logic was to see winepath as a utility useful while "using" Wine,
while I see the tools as something to "work" with Wine. But I see you're
reasoning, so reverted. I had also accidentally added the winepath
manpage to wine/stretch, reverted.

I'm now looking into how to get winepath in tools the best way.

Speaking of the tools:

Do we give up on 32-/64bit co-installability of the tools permanently? I
saw nobody complaining, neither after their dependencies made them
not-coinstallable, nor since they officially conflict now.

If yes, I propose to provide symlinks in path for all the tools now in
/usr/lib/wineVERSION/ (wmc, wrc, winedump, winebuild and winemaker). 5
additional links in /usr/bin seem fair to me for an optional package
that needs to be installed on purpose.
We may also merge the wine[32|64]VERSION-tools.

Opinions?
