A 32bit (i386) windows application binary can only run in a 32bit Unix application [1]. In which case the Unix kernel will handle the system call emulation and ensure that the only user-space virtual addresses the application sees are 32bit (it may be able to give the app almost 4G of user address space - instead of the usual 3G).
So the Wine on my 64-bit Ubuntu (which works perfectly well) is actually a 32-bit app? I didn't know that!
