The function in question never goes anywhere near any Win32 code; any
localised messages are strings internal to Wine. Where would any "user
defined message tables" come in? If the user wants to customise Wine in
any way, they can - but this is nothing to do with any Win32 aspects.
Why try to make what must be a Unix function, invisible to the Win32 side,
look like a Win32 call? It cannot use the same resources or code anyway -
trying to make one look like the other will only lead to confusion.
