Vitaliy, perhaps you prematurely discourage him from playing around with cross compiling.
Not necessarily. Some folks are looking for a solution to run their
'favorite' Wine programs on non-X86 platforms that are compiled to run
on an x86 platform. Wine cannot 'make this happen' and never, ever
will. You need some sort of (platform CPU) <-> x86 processor emulator.
This is outside of the scope of the Wine project, but for an example
take a look at the Darwine project (if it is still available on
Sourceforge) for an example on how to try.
Why not to give him a chance? No matter if he starts asking "vain" questions, in the below topic this helped to detect a few issues in winegcc implementation. Wine can gain some benefit.

Wine is reported by some users to be compiled for ARM target on a x86 host.
See this topic:
http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?t=10535
Work is ongoing to make Wine compile on ARM, this is true.
In particular, the posts by KenSharp and André H.

Qemu is an emulator, if I recall correctly.
It'd be better to carry on the discussion in that topic and close this one.
Yes.
