Because some companies have internally-generated applications that depend
on Windows libraries, and WineLib would (theoretically) allow them to
get them off of WinTel machines and onto (e.g.) Sun servers.

A highly admirable objective, IMHO.
Especially if used as a pilot project (Wine as RAD port.)
