I gather you're referring to the Windows binary.  I've never tried WINE 
(and have no way of trying it), so I don't know.  There is relatively 
little platform-specific code in the simulator -- a bit dealing with Telnet 
connections, a bit dealing with serial ports, and a bit to get better timer 
resolution.  The large majority of the external calls are to the standard C 
library.

That said, the source should compile easily on a variety of platforms 
(Linux, FreeBSD, macOS) using gcc or clang.  No third-party libraries are 
used, so compilation should be just a matter of unpacking and making as 
described in Section 1.1. of the included "SIMH Users' Guide Supplement."
