I think you'd need an emulation layer though.  Perhaps a lookup table -
essentially what Wine is to Windows binaries on X.

I think the better thing would be to get to work on bringing ReactOS up to
speed, then it could be ported to S/390.  Then all you'd need to do would be
to recompile the apps, and that would probably serve to round off some rather
rough edges on them.
