Well we're suppose to be stabilising, its not in rawhide yet so any
form of impact can even be assessed and personally I would trust the
maintainer as he's also one of the upstream maintainers.

Also reading the reference bugs about wine I'd like to point out the following:
1) Wine audio is broken since F-15 as per bug # 28622 so this is not a
regression
2) To quote bug # 10495 - "Yes, PulseAudio is supported through its
ALSA compatibility plugin. It's
possible that a PulseAudio driver might happen at some point, but there's no
plans for one at the moment."
3) I don't believe from reading the bugs that the wine problem will be
fixed by adding PA 1.0 but there might be a patch that could be added
to either PA or wine to fix or at least improve the problem.
