Have you contacted TransGaming to see if they'll support it? I'm certain
you could make a point that there are parents who want their kids on
GNU/Linux boxen, but have to deal with the realities of marketing for
kids.

You can even make the point that the games don't work on new m$ boxen, so
Cedega could be the only way to keep using them in a couple of years.
