Similar issue found with Ubuntu 9.10 all patches applied and wine 1.3, and
1.2.1:
err:virtual:map_image failed to set 60000020 protection on section .text,
noexec filesystem?

Error appeared with patch 4.0.1 on a wine and wow installation that used to
work just fine before that patch upgrade.

The following fix that worked in this case --
the disk where wow was installed was mounted from fstab using:

/dev/thedisk /media/themountpoint   ext3    users,relatime,errors=remount-ro 0 
     0

This worked for years without an issue.
Today to get Wow login to work required:
1) sudo umount /dev/thedisk
2) sudo fsck /dev/thedisk
3) sudo mount -o rw /dev/thedisk /media/themountpoint

The assumption is that there was an error during mount and the disk was
remounted ro each time (as this continued across system reboot). There was
however no issue found during fsck and no issue mounting the /dev/thedisk drive
in dmesg nor messages.

Still, after these three steps the wow login worked (finally). The login issue
occurred in wine 1.2 as well as wine 1.3.
