[KSB] Nancy, it is entirely appropriate to warn folks to be prepared for
the CPRS client running under wine on Linux to be less than fully
functional and to crash.  However, I don't see how it can be any more
dangerous to the globals on the server than the same client running on
Windows.  I would expect the protocol between the client and server to
be robust enough to handle crashes of the client (otherwise, the
protocol can be considered fatally flawed, which I would assume it
isn't).

It is always good advice to back up the server often, and to run
journaling.  It is not necessarily meaningful to back it up more often
just because you are running the CPRS client under wine.
