Since someone was nice enough to mention this issue had been discussed on the
Blizzard forums, I have decided to do the research and locate these forum
threads.

(Remember to skip over the obvious trolls, of which there are many.)

1. Links to a standalone utility which will set the LARGEADDRESSAWARE flag, so
you don't have to install the whole Windows SDK. This app seems to run OK in
Wine.

2. Provides longer explanation of the issue and a link to a second standalone
utility which will set the LARGEADDRESSAWARE flag. This app requires .NET 3.5
so probably won't work very well or at all in Wine.

3. Official Blizzard post stating that using LARGEADDRESSAWARE will not get you
banned, and providing some other workarounds.

There are other threads, but these were the most useful I found.
