Correct. So, in other words, the build works as expected. So, have you
tried to actually start the executable?

Maybe, but you don't want to. Apart from the structural equivalence
between DLL and EXE modules in the Windows world (EXEs are just DLLs with
an entry point), there are reasons why the Wine runtime environment must
be setup before the main module (your .so) can even be loaded.
