Quite difficult, because windows tries to get into protected mode.
I thought it wasn't possible at all, but..  (surprise,surprise).

SCO has a Support Diskette called 'unx268'.

It's for SCO UNIX 3.2 and SCO VP/ix 1.2. 
Excerpt from the enclosed letter:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
The enclosed Support Level Supplement (SLS) unx268 supplies support for
the Microsoft Windows 3.0 product running under SCO VP/ix 1.2 on the SCO
UNIX Operating System Release 3.2. This will replace the locore.o file in
the /etc/conf/pack.d/kernel directory. It will also rebuild and relink the
kernel. This must be installed in system maintenance mode. This will only
install on a SCO Unix Operating System release 3.2.0 or greater running the
SCO VP/ix release 1.2.0. This will not install on SCO MPX or the SCO 286 or
386 Xenix Operating System. 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

It's available per uucp from sosco.
