"devel" is not a branch, FC-4, FC-3 and older are. If a package is
discontinued, the first place where to delete the files is "devel".
"devel" only contained wine because devel is where a module is started
before it's branched. The version of wine that was imported is from rh9
times and was branched by accident. Have a look at "cvs log".
