The requirements for Winelib are similar to those for Wine.
Basically if you can run Wine on your computer then you can run
Winelib. But the converse is not true. You can also build Winelib
and Winelib applications on platforms not supported by Wine,
typically platforms with a non i386 processor. But this is still
pretty much uncharted territory. It would be more reasonable to
target one of the more mundane i386-based platforms first.
The main difference is that the compiler becomes much more important.
It is highly recommended that you use gcc, g++, and the GNU binutils.
The more recent your gcc compiler the better.
For any serious amount of code you should not consider anything older
than gcc 2.95.2. The latest gcc snapshots contain some useful bug
fixes and much better support for anonymous structs and unions. This
can help reduce the number of changes you have to do in your code but
these are not stable releases of the compiler so you may not want to
use them in production.
