I've checked /proc/pid/maps at the time of the crash and it seems the address space is too fragmented to find such a large free area. This is due to randomized address space feature where some system lib mappings lead to fragmentation of the the virtual address space.
You can temporarily turn this feature off:
--- snip --- $ sudo bash -c "echo 0 >/proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space" --- snip ---
and the game should now start (did in my case).
`setarch $(uname -m) -R bash` and then launching wine from that terminal (or just setarching wine directly) should do the same thing without needing root privileges or applying the setting system-wide.
