Alexander, what Vitaliy once said should be 
probably translated into Henri Verbeet's comment:

| Those applications will break in exactly the same way on Windows.

And here are proves: [2][3].  To work around 
this you probably are supposed to download 
DxSDK and to extract required DLLs from it.
As it is in Windows, as in Wine.  Right?

And with making users' world better by creating 
opensrc dlls replacement the question IMHO is 
whether Wine project needs to make a additional 
law analysis, as the dlls could perhaps impact 
MS business / cross MS license.  So separate 
project would be the safe way for Wine.  Still, 
as no one have started doing this, it seems the 
easiest way for devs is to download Dx (DxSDK).

Did I miss something in my summary? :)
