You're a star, Dan; it works.

I should write up some details on getting it running, but I've got some 
concerns on legality. I guess the only dubious step is that I supplied a 
drive ID when requesting a license, and set my Wine drive ID to that 
number. I guess that someone could complain that this is against the 
spirit (or the letter?) of the license agreement. On the other hand, if 
I'd set Wine's ID first, and then requested a license for that ID, that 
seems perfectly kosher to me.

Any thoughts, anyone?
