IIRC, ReactOS's implementation of the Win32 is gleaned from Wine, so it's doubtful that an app that will not run in Wine will run in ReactOS.

Also, your life might be easier if you just use a different VCS (also, does MPLAB, [or any mainstream IDE, for that matter] even integrate with JEDI VCS -- until now, I have heard of many VCSs, like CVS, SVN, Bazaar, Mercurial, Git, SourceSafe, and likely others that I can't now remember, but never JEDI VCS) that is either hosted offsite by a repository provider or runs natively on Linux.
