Correct. However, the ISO build chokes (or used to) at the idea of 
including two sets of libs on the ISO image. That is why I said that Wine 
has to be installed after the 64 bit ISO has been installed. That was why 
we dropped dssi-vst years ago (depends on wine1.6-i386). If things with 
the way ISOs are built, it may be something to look at again.
