Crappy source code of the q'n'd WIP Bochs port

Bochs is a highly portable open source IA-32 (x86) PC emulator written in C++,
that runs on most popular platforms. It includes emulation of the Intel x86 CPU,
common I/O devices, and a custom BIOS. Currently, Bochs can be compiled to
emulate a 386, 486, Pentium, Pentium Pro or AMD64 CPU, including optional MMX,
SSE, SSE2 and 3DNow! instructions.
Bochs is capable of running most Operating Systems inside the emulation
including Linux, DOS, Windows® 95/98 and Windows® NT/2000/XP. Bochs was written
by Kevin Lawton and is currently maintained by this project.
    Bochs can be compiled and used in a variety of modes, some which are still
in development. The 'typical' use of bochs is to provide complete x86 PC
emulation, including the x86 processor, hardware devices, and memory. This
allows you to run OS's and software within the emulator on your workstation,
much like you have a machine inside of a machine. For instance, let's say your
workstation is a Unix/X11 workstation, but you want to run Win'95 applications.
Bochs will allow you to run Win 95 and associated software on your Unix/X11
workstation, displaying a window on your workstation, simulating a monitor on a
PC.
