Isn't there some way to tune the prelinking so it will skip certain
files?  Maybe you can set it up to not prelink the winex stuff, but you
could still get the advantages for other things like X, gtk, evolution,
etc.

Note that prelinking only affects the startup time of applications.  If
you don't log on/off very much or restart your applications very much,
it's probably not that big a deal.  Major apps like Mozilla, Evolution,
and OpenOffice are pretty much always open on my desktop, so it's not a
big deal for me.
