Do you get the same error with a recent current? I hope it may be  
fixed with the mmap changes. But it may also be the way the memory is  
laid out in FreeBSD vs. Linux. IIRC the native wine had a similar  
problem until someone fixed the code for wine on FreeBSD. But I'm not  
sure about this.

Bye,
Alexander.
