I believe this is possible by compiling Wine in a similar way to how the
CXWine sources are done and then slipping the appropriate libs and such
in place.. I am working on a way to do this and I can only foresee a few
issues with combining the two:

* Some Wine binaries are modified to show CX how the product is licensed
   (if CX binaries become Wine binaries does it provide accidental
"circumvention" or does it prevent use of the proprietary components?)
* Development environments will differ
   (from what I can tell Debian is used)
* No support, CodeWeavers can't support it :-(

So if a CW employee could tell me if the issues I foresee are likely to
occur it would be helpful ;-)
