Well, I just tested my new kernel with the last (not most current) doscmd,
and it passed my two tests:

./doscmd /ls -l
./doscmd -bx

(and, let me tell you: seeing the "Enter date" prompt in the little window
is thrilling. I know we can do it with pcemu, but this is using *my* kernel
changes, and *msmith's* doscmd, and I think it's much more exciting ;).)

I've placed the diffs in freebsd.org:~ftp/pub/sef/vm86-diffs-960919. As
usual, these are relative to 2.1.5-RELEASE. (To answer another question: I
am using 2.1.5-RELEASE as my base because I am introducing lots of potental
bugs into the kernel, and I would rather use something very stable. This
way, any crash I run into I can be 90% certain is due to my code, not
something in -current ;).)

Sean.
