No. The MS-DOS 6.22 computer is a 486 Sx/25 with 8 MB of RAM (heh), so
it's real hardware. I ran DOSBox 0.72 (emulation) on this cpu right
here, Pentium 4 "Northwood" 2.52 Ghz w/ 512 MB RAM (Win XP Home SP2).
But DOSBox emulates a 486DX2, so the instructions supported are
similar.

As mentioned in the other posts, it appears to be an errant CMOVNE
(PPro/P2) instruction, which is not supported on 486s or original
Pentiums.
