Surely there is no reason that wine actually has to do these checks anyway - would it not be simply possible to say that the checks passed regardless?
And even if we do decide to implement them, (I don't know the legal position on this - I'm not a lawyer or anything), I don't see why implementing copy protection code should be any different than the rest of the wine code - as long as we make it up ourselves, it should be legal (again, I'm not sure about this)
