IIRC, there was talk about important dosemu related patches that are present in the most recent kernels. i think it was said that the patches have been in the ac kernels for awhile, but have just recently made it into the vanilla 2.4 kernels.
Generally that patches are needed if you have a "Segmentation fault" crash without a "(core dumped)" when dosemu is not in DPMI mode. Also if you are going to do some weird thing like starting WinNT installer under dosemu, you'll need one of those patches. Another one is required if you have problems using a direct hardware access under dosemu (this one was even considered a security-related by RedHat: http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2002-158.html ) There were also some other work, but in general (unless the specified sympthomes are matched) kernel upgrade may not be necessary to get one or another program to work under dosemu.
