I wouldnt say WONTFIX, Ill forward a note to wine-devel and see if they think
its worth it to add in 16-bit calls to the dll.  Basically for them it should be
semi-trivial, only because they already have a working 32-bit version, they just
need the functions to either convert the 32-bit functions to 16-bit, or just add
something like an if running 16-bit game use these functions, else use the
32-bit ones..

Of course if they say WONTFIX, we should add a note to the Users guide about the
fact that we are slowly moving (have moved?) away from 16-bit support, and that
therefore win98/me programs (bundled with the os or not) may not work.

Since it is an issue, confirming.
