I've tested changing ADDRESS_SPACE_LIMIT to 0x80000000 (patch attached)
and ilink32.exe runs successfully.

There is another patch

http://www.winehq.com/hypermail/wine-devel/2004/03/att-0082/01-0012-wine-fix-bcc55.patch

that marks the page at 0x80000000 as reserved.

As I know Windows has a compatibility code to emulate old bugs and
undocumented for some applications depending on program name. Why not
to add similar functionality to Wine ?
