Write a proxy DLL that exports the functions in PE format, maps the 
arguments and calling convention, and calls the native so. Compile that 
as a winelib app.

Only winelib apps can technically call a native so, so calling your 
library directly from the PE is impossible without either employing a 
proxy, or implementing the linux loader yourself.
