A second dll maybe. (That is not liked to msvcrt)

Also one more thing you could do is a small Winelib app 
(run_unix.exe.so) that communicates STDIN STDOUT raw style through 
GetStdHandle / ReadFile /WriteFile (see MSDN). and in tern popen() a 
Linux process. So you do:

<Winelib_code>
    popen("run_unix param1 param2 ..." ,"rb+") ;
</Winelib_code>

Such a program could also be useful for a Native app that needs to run a 
Linux application.
