Hello Andy, I am unlucky at testing this.
dosemu doesn't even start for me on the git kernels.
After a half day of debugging, it seems the kernel forgets
to fill in the "err" field in the sigcontext struct when
page fault occurs. That confuses the dosemu's instruction
decoder.
Does this ring any bells?
