I'm writing a COMPAT_V7 right now to celebrate Unix 50 next year. To be
difficult, this is really COMPAT_VENIX for an old 8088 v7 port that I have
some history with. There is a wait call there mentioned elsewhere in the
thread. I want it mostly so I can run the compiler on something fast...

Maybe not desperation, but at least a little crazy .. it's not clear even a
kernel module is the right path since qemu userland might be easier...
