Is that a registry that comes from a real Windows install, or one that
came from WineX with many many games loaded?

Regardless, the ShmServer does need to handle a situation like this
gracefully and not crash, etc.  Perhaps we can disable Shm mode on
startup if the registry is too big.  Or perhaps the registry can be
stored in a seperate Shm area or something...

Take care,
