An educated guess is that as Wine is compiled as not 64-bit aware (that is,
just like any other program that is explicitly compiled as 32-bit), it is
therefore limited by the 32-bit memory limitations just as much as it would be
on a 32-bit Linux. If there's a problem with memory handling, it should be a
Linux vs Windows memory handling problem instead of a 32-bit vs 64-bit memory
handling one.
