I don't know if this is any interest, but DOSemu won't work on the 2.3/2.4
kernels 
because the V86 hooking system appears to have changed too much for DOSemu to
cope with.
If you build it on 2.2.x and then run it on 2.3, terrible things will happen
when you
enter graphics mode.  Apparently it will be fixed in the next DOSemu release.
