DOSBox isn't detected by wine #40

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Build wine
2. run a dos program using wine from either wine's bin directory or any other 
directory.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect Wine to detect DOSBox and pass the command.
What I see is:
"winevdm: Cannot start DOS application 
Z:\Volumes\VBox_share\share\DOS_Games\convert.exe
         because the DOS memory range is unavailable.
         You should install DOSBox."

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
version: I don't know, they don't have version numbers. It's the modded version 
from the issue for compiling on 10.8.
operating system: Mac OS X 10.8



Please provide any additional information below.

I can run DOSBox directly from the same directory as the wine executable and 
that works fine. Wine will not recognize DOSBox though...

I failed to run
export PATH="${WINEBINPATH}:\${PATH}"
so it couldn't find DOSBox.

After exporting this path Wine would find DOSBox, but close almost immediately. 
That would be something to report at WineHQ though, unless this is working for 
someone here.

If you compile DOSBOX from svn Wine can actually start it now after exporting 
the path like above. There are still misconfigured items in Wine so DOSBOX may 
run better directly.

I gave Ryan a diff file to enable building from wine-git and dosbox-svn, so 
hopefully the fixes will be merged soon.
