Anyway, when compared to the shared memory server it seems to me that the main advantage of a kernel module is stability. It is my understanding (correct me if I'm wrong) that with the shared memory approach, a buggy (or malicious) Wine/Winelib application could crash all other Wine/Winelib applications using that server (at least only one user would be affected).
Whereas with the kernel module, it could panic the entire machine. Yepee!!
