That quote is incorrect. Wine can run SafeDisk protected games. The trick here is - what version of SafeDisk is used. All versions up-to and including 3.x should work on Wine. Version 4.x is iffy and your mileage way vary. 

Anything newer then 4.x most likely won't work, as it uses extra invasive kernel drivers.
