AFAIK, there's a difference between Wine and Winelib. You're describing winelib. Wine is the monster which takes an Win32 EXE and does the conversion on the fly. Winelib is fine by me; Wine isn't, except in emergency!
"wine" is just a wrapper around winelib, it is very small. The whole interesting stuff is in winelib, including the loader etc ;) Ciao, Marcus
