This does not look a duplicate to me, though solution I want to test is
supposed to help both (and that's how this version of msxml and probably Mortal
Kombat 11 succeed on Windows 8+). Here the program relies on pre-Win8 16TB user
space address limit, which was lifted in Win8. AION is not fine with 8TB
address range, it wants the addresses in 16GB range in my observations. All of
that succeed on Windows (most of the time) because Windows allocates virtual
memory bottom up (unless top down is explicitly requested for virtual
allocation). That is, it will not give an application high memory pointers if
the lower memory addresses are available. My patch makes Wine allocations
behave in a similar way.
