Yeah, it isn't working with jack_fst at all, after more experimentation. 
  It just hangs and I have to manually kill it all.  Running under 
vstserver, though, I get a unresolved symbol error when it tries to load 
the DLL, and it's unusable with that as well.

They are installed in a subdirectory directly under the directory where 
the VSTi dll installed.  I notice the manufacturer (GMedia) has a small 
utility to run the VSTi as a standalone application now.  I might try 
that and see if it works under Wine.
