Just having a little fun. I'm friends with the 86box project. They're more than welcome to incorporate these new microcode cores.
As an interesting bit of trivia, 86box's 8088 core is currently an amalgamation of code from reenigne's original, non-microcoded XTCE, and bus logic from MartyPC.
So we'll work together to integrate the new microcode cores.

i have a prefetch queue measurement at the start of this utility to detect between an 8088 and 8086 and between a V20 and V30 because they have 4 byte and 6 byte queues, respectively.
Many emulators don't even emulate the prefetch queue at all; so we can just print
(likely sloppy emulator?) - gloriouscowgloriouscow@oldbytes.spaceOct 16, 2026, 5:42 PM
DosBox-X fails to calculate the undefined flags for MUL, so we can detect that
