CPU family 16 or 17 not supported (Unknown CPU type)

Binary package hint: dosemu

On my AMD Phenom(tm) 9550 processor DOSEMU crashes on startup with a

Division by zero

It seems that DOSEMU does not support newer CPU's.

My /proc/cpuinfo says:

vendor_id : AuthenticAMD
cpu family : 16
model : 2
model name : AMD Phenom(tm) 9550 Quad-Core Processor

Note that the fix is in Debian/testing now: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=524395

When will it be fixed in Ubuntu?
