I have basically the same setup (5.3 patchlevel 2 and Wine 120104) and get the
same error.
However, strangely enough, the error shows up on some apps that actually run.
I was able to run Mozilla's Sunbird calendar program with no apparent errors
on-screen, but , if I start it from a terminal window I see the heap error,
but it runs anyway...
I looked at the vm_mmap.c in the latest sources and the patch would not apply,
so I assume the code has been merged, but couldn't really verify that. I
searched for some of the variables from the patch and they weren't in the
file. So, now I'm really confused as to what needs to be done.
