tried it (CC="wine cl", etc).

Won't work ever!

Are you certain?

Certainly this works:
        $ wine nmake /f foo.mak

I have dozens of projects which cross-build this way for 32 and 64 bit Windows.

Forget about wine and Microsoft compilers.
mingw provides a decent environment, fully integrated to autotools and
cross environments.
