To be more clear, the entry point function I refer to is usually labeled 
_start, and preforms all program initialization functions (that is, 
after ld.so load and relocates all the requires shared objects), such as 
  processing the program arguments into a form usable by main(), and 
calling main(). Since each OS passes inital arguments and environment to 
programs differently, it would require that: a. the source to the crt0.o 
file be available, and b. that someone has the time to modify it to work 
with Wine.

Most crt0 fiels are written in assembler, but a notable exception is 
FreeBSD, whose _start function is written in C, nad has the following 
prototype:

void _start(char *arg0, ...);

Which means that FreeBSD passes the arguments C-style.
