Check https://github.com/kholia/OSX-KVM then combine that with macports (night
also want to use my overlay https://github.com/Gcenx/macports-wine)

osxcross has been very useful for building wine for macOS a larger issue is
osxcross-omp (the macports package manager wrapper) needs prebuilt packages to
be available but some packages are missing namely some X11 packages.

If osxcross is to be used then a more stable setup would be falling back to
using XQuartz 2.7.7 and building SDL2/FAudio from source but that means a lack
of gstreamer1 etc
