16bit appcrash on W2K8 32bit and Vista 32bit guests

[Angel Pagan]

16 bit appcrash on 32bit windows 2008 and Vista guest. Used git bisect and determined the problem has occurred since vgabios update included in commit 6eefccc0bb9c34051b1e21880fc3a1c1c8686edd in qemu.git. Using a vgabios before this commit works.

To reproduce boot a Vista or Windows 2008 guest and start a command window. In the command window type command.com . Notice ntvdm appcrash.

Looking through old bug tickets... can you still reproduce this issue with the latest version of QEMU? Or could we close this ticket nowadays?
