Is it as nontrivial as it appears

I've now got to the stage where I have to look at whether it is possible for a 
linux process to call into windows dlls.  (Don't bother telling me to use 
winelib to make the linux executable into a winelib one).

I've never really thought too hard about it; it has always seemed to me that 
it ought to be quite trivial; just make sure you call the correct 
initialisaton functions and there you go.  Indeed that has been my response 
on occasions on c.e.m.w and no-one had corrected me.

I've just started looking at it and I get the distinct impression that due to 
the multiple processes and threads involved it may not be as trivial as I 
though.

Anyone care to comment?
