Thank you

After getting you message I searched and found some additional information.

1) prelink -a -u

2) Modify 'PRELINK_OPTS' in '/etc/sysconfig/prelink' to be :
        PRELINK_OPTS="-m --no-exec-shield"

3) prelink -a -m --no-exec-shield

4) reboot

Now wine works again. :-)

I don't know if prelink is working, but nothing seems to be loading or 
working more slowly.
