Question about mmap issues on FreeBSD/NetBSD

Just a question about the mmap issues experienced on FreeBSD, i.e.
 http://www.winehq.org/?issue=230#Wine%20on%20FreeBSD

I encountered the same on NetBSD. It seems the error message is set from
ld.elf_so in NetBSD and ld-elf.so.1 in FreeBSD, when the address space
is mapped for the run time linking? Since MAP_NORESERVE is not documented
(and not supported?) for mmap on FreeBSD and NetBSD, it would appear
that wine and the ld.elf_so together require too much memory for all the mmap
calls.

Am I correct?

Kind regards,
