Reading between the lines on their list archives, start piling on the 
Windows-native (non-emulated) libraries.

IMHO the WINE developers should carefully avoid using the Windows libraries 
where a clone exists, instead of being lazy and using the DLL. That way the 
clones would quickly become more useful, and WINE would go better out of the 
box. A useful compromise would be to document which DLLs were in use during a 
successful test run of an app, that way at least you'd know what you had to 
do to make it go.
