Similarly if you are on FreeBSD you may want to apply an LDT sharing
patch too (unfortunately this one still isn't in the tree, neither
-current nor -stable), and there also is a small sigtrap fix thats
needed for wine's debugger. (Actually now that its using ptrace() by
default it may no longer make a difference but it still doesn't hurt...)
And if you're running a system from the -stable branch older than
Nov 15 1999, like a 3.3-RELEASE, then you also need to apply a signal
handling change that was MFC'd at that date. More information including
patches for the -stable branch is in the ports tree:

(the signal handling patch, patch-3.3-sys-fsgs, and the latest README
haven't yet been committed as i write this, if they still aren't there
