Are there non-Microsoft DLLs that expect to be hooked this way?  If
so, I think the patch is interesting for gcc independent of whether it
is useful for Wine.

I haven't seen any so far. Its certainly possible some server apps have the 2 byte nop at the beginning of functions for a similar hot- patching mechanism, but beyond that I don't think any app needs this.
