How to run GCC for ARM cross compiling in WSL2 via WINE? - gcc

Question

I'm trying to pack my Windows Toolchain into a container image. For that, I use WSL2 and Docker. To run Windows binaries, I use Wine. This works for many Windows tools, but unfortunately, gcc does not work:

System information:
Wine build: wine-5.0 (Ubuntu 5.0-3ubuntu1)
Platform: i386
Version: Windows 7
Host system: Linux
Host version: 5.10.60.1-microsoft-standard-WSL2
GCC is from here: https://developer.arm.com/tools-and-software/open-source-software/developer-tools/gnu-toolchain/downloads-1
Other tools in the directory, like gcov, readelf, etc. don't work either.
Is there anything I can do to track down the issue or is nearly impossible to run a toolchain in Wine?
The reason I have to to use the Windows Version instead the Linux version is that the toolchain is slightly modified by our supplier and Windows only :( But I'd like to avoid to run a Windows Docker Server for one image only, therefore the Wine approach.
