On the 64-bit Linux I'm using, I've found that QEMU is much faster
than DOSBox or dosemu when emulating DOS, but that QEMU crashes
very frequently.  It has some problems with DJGPP code which
I'm assuming have something to do with either DPMI or file
redirection and/or piping, based on when the code crashes.  Have
you seen any such issues with QEMU?
