Replying to myself for the benefit of the email archives and anyone else who
runs into this.

I got the following response from Codeweavers: "The issue is caused by the
lack of support for writeable mmap in the filesystem you are trying to save
the file on. Normally if you were just accessing a flash drive directly or
over NFS this should not be a problem but LTSPFS uses Fuse which does not
support writeable mmap."
