Bug ID: 59042
           Summary: winevdm is incompatible with Rosetta 2
           Product: Wine
           Version: 10.19
          Hardware: aarch64
                OS: MacOS
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: dos
          Assignee: [e-mail]
          Reporter: [e-mail]

Attempting to run a win16 game on Apple Silicon via Rosetta results in a
failure for Rosetta 2:

rosetta error: LDT 0xf33f0488323f not supported

This has been tested against chip's challenge and SkiFree.

I think this is a problem with Rosetta 2 that can't be resolved except via
emulating a 16-bit Intel CPU as Rosetta 2 lacks the needed 16-bit call
emulation.

One possible solution would be to do what MS does for running 32-bit Intel
software under 64-bit ARM CPUs, but work would need to be done on the Mac side
for that to happen.
