I'd be very surprised if Wine ran any of these applications to your
satisfaction. You may want to look into getting Wabi to run under FreeBSD.
Caldera sells an x86 version of Wabi for Linux ($200 or so) and since
Wabi runs in userland, it may work under the Linux emulator.

I've seen Wabi run, and its emulation is far better than Wine's. 
On the other hand, Wine is a much better system.. that is, it's
interaction with X is preferrable to Wabi's. If they had the same
emulation abilities, I'd prefer Wine over Wabi. But if you really need to
run Win 3.1 software, Wabi is probably your best bet.
