I am one of the original authors and current maintainer of RTEMS -- a
free real-time operating system for embedded systems.  My interest in
plex86 and bochs is to have a test vehicle for RTEMS support on the
PC that does not involve real hardware.  I already test about a
half-dozen ports on simulators and would like to add the x86 to this
list.

I don't want to distribute plex86 or patches for it, only instructions
on how to run RTEMS with it.  So anything that moves that to a reality
would be good by me.
