There is no need for hacks like that, 3 Gb address space limit is already implemented in Wine, but is being activated only for applications marked as IMAGE_FILE_LARGE_ADDRESS_AWARE for obvious reasons.
Doesn't that only work if Windows is already booted in 3GB mode? I thought I read somewhere that the flag doesn't do anything if the system wasn't booted with /3GB..
Here: "The /3GB switch allocates 3 GB of virtual address space to an application that uses IMAGE_FILE_LARGE_ADDRESS_AWARE in the process header. This switch allows applications to address 1 GB of additional virtual address space above 2 GB. The virtual address space of processes and applications is still limited to 2 GB, unless the /3GB switch is used in the Boot.ini file." http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/system/platform/server/PAE/PAEmem.mspx
