You can actually run the executables under wine directly.  In fact you
just run them.  Assuming you've set up the ~/.wine/config file so that
paths to any non-standard DLLs can be found, then ./virsh.exe does the
right thing.

Setting up DLL paths correctly when mingw-runtime is installed was one
thing I was going to look at.

virt-top is 'top' for virtual machines.  Tiny program with many
