I have worked around this, but currently the work-a-round is messy as I have to
send /bin/mknod and /bin/rm commands to the shell using _system(). I tried
asking for wine_mknod() (http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20081) and a
fix for DeleteFile() (http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20071) so I could
do this tidly, but those were dismissed.
As regards security Wine reading /dev/cpu/<n>/msr is no different to SIV
reading them.
I suspect what I really need is a "semi-linelib" app. What would be ideal for
me is a winelib.dll that allowed me to load and call native *nix functions, but
from a Windows .exe.
Currently I am tempted to simply stop bothering to fix SIV run well on Wine
