As a side note, I have already seen that Wine is extremely sensitive
to some leaks. The ultimate reason is that some resources are linked to
file handles and that the Linux kernel (at least mine : 2.2.5) is hard-wired
to a limit of 1000 handles per process (1000 handles should be enough
for everyone ;-)). So a program that was leaking directory handles at
a rate of more than 10000 by normal hour of use was happily working
under WinNt while it crashed after a few minutes under Wine.
