Yes, but that presents me with even more tests ...

Virtual PC opcode series:
0x0f 0x3f xx xx
0x0f 0xc7 0xc8 yy yy

DOSBox callback
0xfe 0x38

NTVDM opcode series:
0xc4 0xc4 xx xx

I'm not sure how to use those, even though I have the series.
And, I can't test NTVDM or Virtual PC, currently.

Yes, I suspect the reboot emulation errors I found in DOSBox and
dosemu won't work with QEMU because QEMU correctly implements the
major BIOS entry points.
