Hi, lets actually add the ML to CC as the question may be interesting for someone else. dosemu2 has quite a few backends for CPU emulation. Simulator, jit, kvm, vm86. For example simulator should be easily portable. So I think the basic v86 functionality should be easily portable to FreeBSD. DPMI currently uses quite a few linux kernel extensions, so this may be more problematic. SDL frontend is very portable too. Overall I think it is just a matter of demand: I haven't heard a lot of demand about BSD ports. I suppose dosbox already dominates the bsd market. Have you tried dosbox for your needs?
