Instead generate it with an echo command which is easier to see what it is doing. It's a trivial file that is just a string and 16 zeroes.

-1 on this. Generating this file at build-time doesn't really add anything but increases build script complexity, and the issue reporter mentioned it's not a real issue for auditability:

wine_builtin.bin [is] small enough to be audited by hand with a hex editor, so it's not a priority. (It's just text with some null bytes afterwards.)

Instead of moving the file contents to CMake, auditability would probably benefit more from a comment explaining what the file is actually used for.
