some time ago I tried to kick out of winmm most of 9x-ism so that it 
would be easier to port the DLL to some other OS (read ReactOS)
if you get the files marked as 16bit out of the build you should be fine

the time* function should work out of the box, except you'll sure want 
to implement a more precise timing engine (current time* implementation 
is based on an internal thread, which of course isn't very accurate)

you'll have also for the rest of winmm to implement the wdmaud.drv which 
isn't implemented in wine because of no use (we use in fact .drv to map 
to existing audio interfaces: OSS, ALSA, aRts, Jack...)

feel free to ask for more info
A+
