error loading wineserver with Winex

After installing winex from the cvs source tree, I get the following
error whenever I try to run wine:

wine: lstat /home/ian/.wine/wineserver-Aragorn/socket : No such file or
directory

It works fine if I first run wineserver. I understand that this has
something to do with having glibc 2.3.2? I didn't get the error with the
latest build of the normal wine tree.

I am correct in that this is a known problem, and what if anything can I
do to fix the problem or help get a corrective patch?

Thanks,
