Wine allocates a 1Mb stack by default, and more if a larger stack size 
is specified in a PE executeable's header.  You can specify the size of 
the a .exe.so's stack by making a def file for it, and adding the line

STACKSIZE 3000000

that should fix the problem, however allocating a 2M buffer on the stack 
seems like a waste of stack space, so it would be better to fix the 
program to allocate memory on the heap, or directly using mmap.
