Ubuntu 8.04 and later have a default setting of 65536 in /proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr. When set, this issue is blocked. If your value is 0, please purge the "wine" and "dosemu" packages, and reset the value:

  sudo apt-get purge wine dosemu
  echo 65536 | sudo tee /proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr

On Ubuntu 6.06, we recommend the work-around detailed above. Kernel are being built shortly to address the issue directly.
