I think that applies to DOSEMU, but not to Wine.
Sven: if you have the ability to build your own kernel, could you also
try the "x86/espfix" branch of the git tree:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git/
(clone URLs:)
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git
... to make sure the proper solution works for you?
I'm somewhat curious if this program you have is actually a 32-bit
program or if it is really a 16-bit program wrapped in a 32-bit
installer of some kind. Hard to know without seeing the program in
question.
