DOSBox and dosemu on 64-bit Linux both emulate a real-mode environment,
not a virtual 8086 environment so that's why the PE bit is clear.
If your application expects actual real mode and doesn't work in either
of these emulators then either your something is wrong with the emulator
or your application.  There shouldn't be any difference between real mode
on an Intel CPU and the real mode provided by these software emulators.
