Branch: CURRENT, Version: 2.7nb8, Package name: bochs-2.7nb8, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

The program bochs is a highly portable open source x86 PC emulator
written in C++, and runs on most popular platforms. It includes
emulation of the Intel x86 CPU, common IO devices, and a custom
BIOS. Currently, bochs can be compiled to emulate a 386, 486,
Pentium, Pentium PRO or AMD64 CPU.

Bochs is capable of running most operating systems inside the
emulation including Linux, NetBSD, Windows 95, DOS, and Windows NT 4.

Log message:
bochs: Various fixes and cleanups.

- Move options to options.mk.
- Make the -x11 option work by not unconditionally linking
  -lX11 in the Makefile.
- Fix the PLIST on non-NetBSD OSes.
- Add SDL support for audio output on various platforms.
- Document some patches and otherwise delint.

XXX: the "debug" option is broken. The debug interface these
days requires wxGTK, but I couldn't get that to work anyhow.

Verified to build on NetBSD and Linux (more testing and reports
welcome); via drecklypkg
