I think you've got it Colin.  The packages appeared to be the same, I 
hadn't spotted the '4' and the '6' after 'ubuntu' in the name. This is 
what I get from the above:

barry at mint ~ $ apt-cache policy wine

barry at mint ~ $ apt-cache policy wine1.6
wine1.6:
   Installed: 1:1.6.2-0ubuntu4

/usr/bin/msiexec
