Most of the patches are actually merged into bochs CVS. The diff against the bochs bios is in the QEMU sources and is currently 1600 bytes long. The problem is that you have to build it with -DQEMU (or something like that), which is in favor of having two different packages for bochs and QEMU. But we could maybe keep one source package. -- .''`.
