Can you work on a Linux system with Wine, for at least those
changes for which the difference shouldn't matter that much?
Not sure.
To run msys bash it has to be at least wine version 1.1.8 (I forgot
number of resolved issue). Next born shells (msys bash and ash from
pw32) are too slow. The simple command like "sh -c echo xxx" is about 10
times slower if compare to native run - the last wine issue is 13606.
