So you'd rather ensure that we hold one or more anonymous maps reserving 
everything above 0x80000000 (except for NT emulations, assuming the 3G 
emulation is to be preferred, or there's an option for 3G), and when the 
system needs to allocate something there, free a portion of the anonymous map 
and reallocate?

Presumably this should all only apply to PE files since Winelib files should 
be sufficiently aware of where they're running to be able to deal with 
whatever the system wants to do with its memory.
