It's extremely grave.  It doesn't work at all.  It's just the
framework.  I thought I mentioned that in the first post...

There's a helper interrupt that dosemu provides for plugins.  It's int
0xe6.  The TSR traps int 0x21 and calls 0xe6 that so the plugin (which
is in linux ELF code) gets control.  The plugin emulates all the int
0x21 calls directly - it doesn't use lredir, mfs, or the net
redirector.
