Please check the mailing list archive. The precompiled version of
dosemu-1.0.2 doesn't like to be run neither as root or suid-root. This is
a bug. Besides, the binary is now called dosemu.bin; dosemu is a script
and making this _script_ or any script for that matter suid-root is a very
very very bad idea.

So, in src/plugin/coopthreads/coopthreads.h change
-#if 1
+#if 0
#include <unistd.h>
#define COM_CHECK_PERMISSIONS { \
in order to get suid-root running again.
