Is it only that patch that needs to be reverted to make things work got wine? For me It seems as if the patch is not that huge, and manually do a copy-paste with the help of a diff tool can be done.

It seems as if even both implemenations can live side-by-side in the code.
And if there is a run-time detection for wine, we could switch between the
old one and the new one which is dependent on how MSVCRT.dll has layed out
internal data structures:
  "ioinfo structure (exposed by MSVCRT.dll via  __pioinfo"
