Sorry, we have a terminology issue here. (Again.)
A Virtual Machine for the rest of us is something like VMWare, Qemu,
VirtualBox, etc. - something that simulates a real machine. You load a
real operating system in it and the operating system generally doesn't know
or care that it's actually in a simulation.
Those other environments are not virtual machines. They are DOS emulators
or different versions of DOS. They are not any form of a virtual machine.
You should have no problems with the InDOS flag when running real DOS in a
real virtual machine. That may not be true for the emulated DOS
environments. I wouldn't even think to try to look for the InDOS flag on
something like DOSBox.

And QEMU sits on the line; if you use KVM it's a VM, but if you don't,
it's an emulator.
