I'm afraid it will be common. Being able to access Unix functions is
the interesting aspect of Winelib after all, if you don't need that
you may as well continue to build as a .exe (like Corel does).

And the real problem is that our system libraries and the Unix libc
are not binary-compatible (and cannot be), and no amount of headers
hacking is going to fix that. So I'm afraid there is no good solution
that doesn't involve heavily modifying the application code.
