>I wrote: FOUR alternatives that ARE historically documented ...
1) Play the wolves (if the "non-existent" accidental is either very short or
has a shake).
2) Use an enharmonic keyboard (as just discussed by Ibo).
3) Use an early form of French temperament, spreading the wolf fifth among
nearby fifths.

Sorry for the typo! I accidentally deleted the fourth alternative:
4) Use Equal Temperament. Although its use on keyboards during the 17th c.
was short-lived, it was occasionally used in Rome and also elsewhere..
