I will add it.

I will update the variable names to reflect the fact that they are
segment selectors.

I need a human-readable way of identifying what segment selector (in
pt_regs, vm86regs or directly reading the segment registers) to use.
Since there is a segment override prefix for all of them, I thought I
could use them. Perhaps I can rename enum segment to enum
segment_selector and comment that the values in the enum are those of
the override prefixes. Would that be reasonable?

I will change it.
