I've seen the WINE postings lately.  But I could use a DOS emulator.
I've got a bunch of utilities (cross compilers and the like for DSPs
and microcontrollers) that I'd like to run under Netbsd (I currently
actually keep a "DOS server" running on a serial port console and an
NFS disk).  These utilities usually say "Requires DOS 3.3 or greater"
(Greater?)

These utilities are probably well behaved.  Is anyone working on a DOS
system for Netbsd or 386bsd?  If not, can someone familiar with the
options (I guess there is DOSemu over in the Linux world) suggest where
I might begin?
