Anyway, even with some performance issues, it looks like instruction emulation is needed for supporting some pure Win95/98/ME programs. It would seem a bit strange we try very hard to support Win31 and WinNT based programs but not those.
Sure, we'll need to put it back somehow, there are too many broken 32-bit apps out there. Part of the reason I disabled it was to find out whether we really needed it or not, but I think the answer is clear. But there are still a number of things that need to be changed in the signal handling first, so it will bit some time before we can make it work properly again.
