Thanks Rui for the suggestion.  Unfortunately, I have signifigantly
increased all of the ulimits (datasize, stack, memory, descriptors,
etc.) without any luck.  I also recompiled "wine-20031212" in pkgsrc
with the line "BUILDLINK2=no" added to /etc/mk.conf and compiled
with "make BUILDLINK2=no install", but I still get the same error:
"/opt/pkg/bin/wine: Cannot allocate memory".

I used to be able to run MSOffice 2000 using "wine-20021007nb1" on
a laptop under X-Windows with only 96MB of RAM, so I can't figure
out why it won't run with 512MB of RAM with a very recent kernel
taken from NetBSD-current.
