I don't run Linux so I don't really know a lot about it or Wine but from what I do understand Wine is not an emulator but an instruction set for the chip.

Something about BigEndian LittleEndian which involves the byte order of code or something.

As long as Windows runs on the chip you should be find but it will not work on RISC chips like the PowerPC chips like from IBM and Motorola.
