Output of the terminal at the exact moment when the problem occurs

Everything is working fine until I load a saved game to continue my old
character from FreeBSD.
It will work the same way as on GNU/Linux for just a few seconds then will
freeze while the led of my hard drive disk will stay lit as to say my hard
drive disk is working a lot. After a few seconds, the game will close, the hard
drive disk led will turn off and I'll be back to my desktop.

A few months ago, I found a workaround to be able to play bigger games on
FreeBSD. I've posted the solution on this page :

+    char *user_space_limit = (char *)0xbffe0000;

reserve_malloc_space( 8 * 1024 * 1024 );

Actually, this change allows me to play bigger games like Skyrim, Call of Duty
or Assassin's Creed but this workaround is not perfect. For example, on The
Witcher, after on quarter of hour, I'll enter a place but the entire game will
become black. I'll still hear the game but the new 'limits' applied with the
patch are reached and the game will finally crash afterward.

So most of the games are running now, yet I think this is not the real
solution. I never had crashes on GNU/Linux playing The Witcher so there's a
different behavior between both.

Usual case of "before-crash" on FreeBSD

Voila, I attached a screen of the common issue FreeBSD users have using Wine. I
played Skyrim for more than an hour now.

Depending on the game, it can run for a very long time before some graphical
glitches start to happen or crash after two loadings (The Witcher 1 crashes
quite quickly but Skyrim runs for more than an hour before having those black
textures).

So actually, I still think that my workaround only pushes the limits further,
it doesn't fix the issue.
