Debian's only showing a x86 version, FWIW.
It looks like there's a lot of x86 assembly in there.
It may not be as easy as you think.
I'm thinking you run dosemu on a bochs/plex86
virtual x86 if you really need it.. It's not going to be easy...
There may be a way to compile dosemu for full simulation. After all,
it's already using a protected mode 386 to 'simulate' a real mode
(16-bit) 386, and real-time translating opcodes accordingly. If it were
to rewrite the 16-bit 386 instructions into C routines, we'd be in
business... There is a emu-i386/simx86/codegen-sim.c in the repo, so
like I said, maybe it's already possible.

I trimmed about 200 lines of crap off of this message,and
I still couldn't figure out who said what.
