I thought to try yum upgrade wine instead of yum update wine, and
similarly for abiword. Same result.

Finally the big hammer : yum remove wine (which appeared to work, and
took away a *.fc4), followed by yum install wine -- which looked normal,
*at* *first* -- and then went into chaos :

I run wine only as part of CrossoverOfficePro 5.0.1; I can try
uninstalling that and reinstalling it, and hoping it will find a
consistent wine assemblage. But what of abiword??
