I have several Delphi programs I run using wine.
I note that your running on PPC, which native wine, nor Kylix is going
to help you with.
Check out Lazarus. I believe the fpc 1.1 compiler will target PPC.
But then you need to run Linux on your PPC, not MacOS.
You could port the program using Lazarus, run Linux on PPC and run OS9.2
under MOL.
If you think wine is alpha software, wait till you look at Lazarus :p)
