[Wine] Wrapping a Windows DLL

Hi,

maybe this is a common question, in which case I would be very glad for a
few pointers to corresponding information. Here is what I am hoping to
achieve:

A device (a DSLR, but that should not really matter) can be controlled by
the computer via USB. The manufacturer provides an SDK and a couple of
DLLs, but no USB documentation and certainly no source. It's using the SDK
or reverse-engineering the protocol. Is it possible to use Wine to emulate
the Windows-specific USB bits and pieces (so the DLL is happy) and thus
write a wrapper lib (.so) for Unix app development?

Regards,
Robert
