Those patches only work when using linux 2.6 kernel as a guest OS. It won't help
you run Windows 98 with qemu-fast. (On the plus side you can run qemu-fast w/o
needing to recompile your host OS kernel :)

That said, *I think* you can get those patches here, but am not sure if these
are the right ones:
