I know very little about this, but my impression is that
Wine supports a limited set of NT os kernel APIs already.
The initial support was added by this patch:
http://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-cvs/2007-May/032546.html
The current set of supported calls can be seen here:

Feel free to implement more, or file enhancement requests
describing what nt os apis a popular app needs.
