You should try to find out what that is.

That doesn't make sense.  So we now have the user heap in place of the
cygheap, and that works?  So why should anything occuping the 0x800000000
- 0xa00000000 area if the cygheap needs it, suddenly not occupy it when
the user heap needs it?

Of course, this could be a result of the user heap not being reserved in
full size like the cygheap is.  The fact that it works with your patch
above points to an incidental success, with the user heap keeping most
of the area from 0x800000000 - 0xa00000000 free.  It would then fail
only later, if the application tries to raise the user heap beyond a
certain size.

Right now this looks like a very special case.  I don't know what I
should do from my side.  Please add debug output and/or use vmmap
from sysinternals to find out what's actually occupying the area
from 0x800000000 - 0xa00000000 and where exactly.

Also, your ffplay executable isn't high-entropy-VA enabled, by any
chance?
