Agreed, WONTFIX.

A quick repeat as summary before further comments sprout up:
 - Fixing this issue with PunkBuster properly is apparently impossible. The
checks done by the app are extreme (checksums and the like). To me that sounds
too extreme even for genuine Windows.
 - As Stefan has explained, other DRM issues have been fixed by
improving/implementing further Windows compatibility. There are no hacks or
circumventions.
 - The real issue is with PunkBuster itself. Contact EvenBalance about it. They
have said they won't implement workarounds for Wine and Friends, but they still
could replace those harsh checksums by something that can actually be
implemented.
