While it isn't specifically a 64-bit issue there does appear to me to be two
parts to this bug. The first part being that wine reserves large amounts of
virtual memory that eventually starves the opengl engine of resource. The
second part being how virtual memory is allocated when greater than 4G of RAM
exists (which exists only in a 64-bit environment). 

System spec:
Asus M3N-HT
Phenom 9850
8gb RAM

Without the patch the out of memory error is frequent and random.
With the hack patch from bug 10778 applied; I can play for hours with gradual
slowdown.
With this patch applied; the memory error occurs the moment the OpenGL engine
kicks in.
With this patch applied and mem=4G passed to the kernel on boot; I can play WoW
for hours without issue.

When swapping out my CPU with a Phenom II 940 (remember AMD puts the memory
controller on die).

Without the patch the out of memory error is frequent and random.

Hope this helps.
