I'm running kernels 2.6.16 - 2.6.18. Yes, the failing machine runs 2.6.18.
It seems to be a really hot trace!
Just now I cannot make test, because I'm not locally on the failing machine.
Will try it ASAP.

I did cat /proc/self/maps several times. It looks very similar on both 2.6.17
as well as 2.6.18. However, it may be something not visible there.

The kernel is patched with exec-shield, but wine works perfectly with it on
2.6.17.

All the machines have identical ulimit. Increasing values on the failing one
doesn't help.

I did the same, also with no effect. I also tried to disable exec-shield, to be
sure, and it also didn't help.
