"Coders working on Wine for Mac have found that the Mac loader has gained its own undocumented ability to load and understand Windows Portable Executable (PE) files. They found PE loading capabilities in Leopard that weren't there in Tiger. Further dissection showed that Apple is masking references to *Win* and *PE* in the dll, which means it's not an accidental inclusion. Is Apple planning native PE execution within OSX?"
