I have wine 990704 running at home without any problems.  I used the
standard distribution plus some of the patches from the ports collection
(I'd have to look up exactly which patches).  I'm running 3.2-R (not sure
what you are using).  What sort of programs are you running with wine and
are you sure this isn't a wine bug (e.g. you've picked a program to test
which exercises a memory leak in wine, which is alpha software after all).
