[comp.os.msdos.programmer] CPU and mode identification for 386/486s

Originally the VCPI spec states that there must be a EMS driver present
before you do the VCPI detection code.  Well now QEMM can be configured for 
no EMS page fram which disables the EMMXXXX0 driver name.  

Does anyone have a way to detect that the machine is in a Virtual 8086 mode?
I know about the 17th bit of the flags the problem is that QEMM seems to
not save that bit since it is operating a 8086 virtual machine.
