Astral

A developer details the process of porting Wine to Astral, a hobby OS, in order to run Cogmind, a 32-bit Windows-only roguelike. Key challenges included enabling MinGW for PE DLL compilation, adding EGL support via Mesa's DRI backend, and implementing WoW64 mode with LDT (Local Descriptor Table) support in the kernel to run 32-bit Windows binaries on a 64-bit OS. A subtle register-saving bug in Wine's PE-to-Unix call dispatcher was also tracked down and fixed, restoring scoresheet upload functionality. The result: Cogmind, FTL, and Deltarune run successfully, while Steam, Firefox, and several other apps remain partially or fully broken. Future goals include getting Steam/Chromium working and improving kernel performance.
