Isolation.
I haven't readed how old is his program but I use to be a DOS Developer and
used a lot of low level OS bypassed features such BIOS calls, direct memory
access, port access, etc. which I guess wine can't manage.

Your VM could be as big as you need: set it with just 1 Mb of RAM and disk
abot few Mb.
