Not that this would be impossible, but nobody has bothered. I know that is must be possible, 64bit Linux's run 32bit wine apps. Gentoo Linux and OpenSuse amd64 editions, work with wine I use one of these two to Play World of Warcraft on my notebook. I Would use FreeBSD but suspend resume on i386 has issues, and no 64bit nvidia, so I am stuck with Linux on my Laptop for the moment. Sam Fourman Jr.
