The basic idea is to have two separate programs; a 'wine' that does
all the command-line processing, and a 'wineloader' that simply
executes a new process from CreateProcess. Then all the option
handling can be moved out of kernel and into that wine program.
Winelib apps will then need to do their own command-line handling, the
kernel will simply pass them the unmodified cmdline (though it should
still be possible to launch a Winelib app through the 'wine' program
to make it handle wine options).

I've added a quick hack to fix this for now.
