Not necessarily--CrossOver Mac has been in existence for at least a year. Not sure about generic Wine.
For those to whom this thread is getting obscure: CrossOver (by CodeWeavers) is a commercial product that originally ran Windows software on Linux, and now does the same on MacOS X. It's based on the Wine (Wine is Not an Emulator) free software project. For another data point, I've been running MLO on CrossOver Linux for at least a year now, with few hiccups (beyond those other Linux users have mentioned). I'd be confident it would work the same way under Mac, but I have no direct experience.

You mentioned that you "have run MLO under Wine and CrossOver". Does that mean you are no longer running MLO on a Mac, and if so, why?
