In general, TransGaming do not accept LGPL-ed patches. Patches must be
submitted under the MIT license (used by ReWind). The few LGPL-ed files
that do exist in Cedega have each had behind them a careful cost/benefit
analysis by the CTO - they're exceptions. And I doubt the cost of
another exception is worth it for the benefit of an empty DLL. You would
have to ask the author to give permission to use it under the MIT
license, so it can be included in ReWind and Cedega.
