One could write a set of DLLs that are loaded instead of the normal wine dlls,
and contain a wrapper function for each function in the dll. In every wrapper
function where PB checks the checksum, clone the instructions that are checked,
so the checksum matches. Then undo the work those instructions did(reset
register contents, stack, etc), and call the real Wine function.

That is a mess from a technical point of view, and legally questionable, and a
LOT of work. But it could be done outside Wine, so you don't have to get this
past Alexandre. The other issue is that PB could catch these thunk DLLs, or
they could be abused for cheating on Windows. (So make this a set of Winelib
dlls, not real PE dlls)
