We almost ran into the same issue.
From
Warning: Microsoft has found an issue with the final build of SP4 that impacts customers who run SQL Server with Address Windowing Extensions (AWE) support enabled. This issue only impacts computers with more than two gigabytes (2 GB) of memory where AWE has been explicitly enabled. If you have this configuration, you should not install SP4. Microsoft is currently working on the problem and will issue an update soon.
