​You just beat me to that (immediate _after_ I clicked SEND). But I'd
consider WINE more like CA's DUO which ran DOS programs under MVS without
recompilation. DUO intercepted the DOS service requests and emulated them
or vectored them to the MVS service (a translation stub kind of). Of
course, IMO, the DOS API is far simpler than Windows. Not a lot of "crap"
like MS.​
