[Wine] Unexpected folder structure in Wine 1.2.2 (Linuxmint 11)

I am trying out Linuxmint 11 and downloaded Wine 1.2.2 from the repository. I
have installed a few applications in Wine and to my surprise my previous
start-up scripts (which I for different reasons use) don't work. It was easy
to find the explanation, but it was even more of a surprise to me: it turned out
that on the C: wine drive instead of "Program files" the directory
"Program" has been created. All applications have now been installed
in "Program". Has anyone experienced this besides me? What is the best
way to deal with this (if it matters at all), should I rename this folder or
should I just update my scripts? I suppose that if I rename there is a risk that
some file references within my already installed applications may fail, but on
the other hand it is inconvenient to have a non-standard setup, e.g. if I
download a script from someone else. I'm happy for any input!
