According to my research on Safedisc the following will assist in proper
execution of SafeDisc programs: 

Programs, libraries, and modules should be able to write to themselves unless
explicitly said otherwise.  This "default off" self-protection is an unusual,
and possibly dangerous "standard" in Windows, but must be done to follow
(unwritten) standard.

Additionally, they should be able to create overlapping pages.   This is
another unusual behavior that Windows permits.

To allow both these functions Wine would have to be compiled with certain
modules explicitly not using libMudFlap nor libSafe if installed, and
explicitly modified to deactivate checks on programs attacking themselves.
