Trying to run an x86 Windows application
inside a non-x86 Wine(lib) environment is going to be a nightmare.

If you want to run Wine (i.e. the binary emulator) on non-x86
architectures, the best approach is to run the Windows application and
Wine-x86 in an x86 emulator. If your emulator is fast enough to run the
Windows application with a reasonable performance, then it should be
fast enough to run Wine-x86 too.
