Whenever I use Wine to run a Windows executable, the following error shows up:

err:heap:HEAP_CreateSystemHeap system heap base address 0x80000000 not available

Some programs will then hang, though others will execute normally.

I am running FreeBSD 5.3 RELEASE. The Wine version is 20050524. I cvsup'ed my ports tree before building and installing the Wine port, but I didn't portupgrade.

Some Linux users have gotten the same error and were able to fix it by recompiling their kernels to support processes that need more than 2GB of memory. I didn't think this should be necessary for FreeBSD.

The bug report (which talks about the 2GB issue ) for this error is:
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2741

I would be satisfied just to know if there is an earlier version without this problem that runs on 5.3.

Thank you for any help you can provide.
