Well, neither of those will result in a build of Wine that can be supported by us. That's a distribution's own responsibility of course, up to a point, but please do take that into account when applying custom patches. When patches aren't in upstream Wine there's usually a good reason, certainly beyond what people sometimes perceive as "Wine hates PA".

As for the mail you received, Maarten Lankhorst has made it fairly clear that he doesn't agree with the way the Wine development process works. That's his good right, but at this point he isn't really associated with the Wine project anymore, at the very least not in the role of audio maintainer. In the mail you received he's speaking as the author of http://repo.or.cz/w/wine/multimedia.git, not on behalf of the Wine project.
