Actually I would argue that it is a Wine bug. If you can get a valid
function on Windows even when the extension is missing, you should get
one on Wine. Conversely, if you get a NULL pointer on Windows for a
missing function, you should get NULL on Wine too.
This means that we have a responsibility to properly remap functions and
extensions between the Windows and the Unix side. We can't simply
forward to the Unix driver and hope that it happens to follow the
Windows semantics.
