Comment (by erinn):

 dcf and I had a little debugging session on IRC yesterday to see if we
 could make libfaketime work but none of our attempts worked. The
 timestamps are the ONLY problem. I have commented on the libfaketime bug
 above to try to persuade them this is a convincing use case, although I
 was perhaps not at my most persuasive. Barring a magic LD_PRELOAD
 incantation we haven't thought of yet, or a very quick patch from the Wine
 folks, I think our options are to either patch Wine ourselves, which
 sounds tricky, or to stop using it and endure the difficulty of learning
 how to crosscompile Python for Windows. I'm currently assuming that the
 latter is going to be the "easier" approach. I can spend some time on that
 next week if nobody else gets to it first.
