Hopefully I simply don't understand what you're trying to do; if I do
understand it, then it doesn't make any sense since Linux and Windows32
are two different OSs that you can't just mix and match binary code.

You may want to look at the Wine project (http://www.winehq.com/) where
such issues are dealt with in gory detail.
