[Bug 1406] New: - 16-BIT VB 3.0 APP -- "NOT ENOUGH SPACE FOR ENVIROMENT"

http://bugs.winehq.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1406

Summary: 16-BIT VB 3.0 APP -- "NOT ENOUGH SPACE FOR ENVIROMENT"
           Product: Wine
           Version: CVS
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: P3
         Component: wine-resources
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

I have been hoping to see this working with baseline WINE releases for about 2
years now. It's not a high priority but it's a curious problem. One particular
application I have errors out with a "NOT ENOUGH SPACE FOR ENVIRONMENT" message
on startup. I do not have the source code for this application.

The application itself is a 16-bit VB 3.0 application used to access an online
database. The header indicates it's an MZ type executable and the imports show
it's based on VBRUN300. There's an NE marker in the header as well. Another
application with exactly the same header (but a different app nonetheless) works
just fine.

The WINE trace shows the following as the cause:

err:local:LOCAL_GetBlock not enough space in local heap 0dc7 for 140 bytes

Now, all that said, if I uncomment the FIXMEs int memory/local.c and prevent the
call from returning 0 in LOCAL_GetBlock, it works fine (for a while at least).
So, I guess the question is, why are the FIXME's in that function still FIXME's
after all this time. I'm sure there is a reason for not uncommenting this code
but if anybody could shed light on this, or get the FIXME's accepted it would be
really appreciated.
