   It sounds like if you're reinventing the wheel. Or do you mean you
are working on integrating some of the BeWine modifications back into
the Wine CVS?

   Well, just in case here is BeWine's official website:

 * The Official BeWine Site
   http://bewine.loungenet.org/

 * And even this page on WineHQ (found by Google, where is it linked
from?):
   http://www.winehq.com/projects/bewine.html
   and this one too:
   http://www.winehq.com/projects/obsolete/bewine.html
   (maybe we need to clean it up a bit)

   I believe they hit a brick wall at some point: Windows application
are supposed to be loaded between 0-2GB but on BeOS this is the reserved
kernel space. And unfortunately its seemed many Windows applications are
not relocatable. I don't know if they found a solution to that.
Otherwise it would be a situation where Winelib could prove useful.

    I haven't lost my mind, it's backed up on tape around here somewhere...
