If things would go the way as they should go then 1.1.3 would be as unstable as linux kernel 2.5.x is . However, it isn't and in fact it fixes quite some bugs that are present in 1.0.2. But then, no guarantees for 1.1.x where x>3 ;) A further difference is that the 1.1.3 source code includes some experimental features (such as cpuemu) that are not compiled in by default. If you're running DOSEMU suid-root you should even upgrade to 1.1.3.2 - 1.1.3 has a known security hole, but then we never said that suid-root DOSEMU was secure (i.e. local root compromises are possible, esp. if you run DPMI apps). The Debian version of DOSEMU 1.0.2.1 fixed the most important ones too. Unfortunately the current 1.0.x maintainer hasn't had the time to release version 1.0.3 yet.
