plex86 is in pkgsrc/emulators/plex86. It requires recent
-current syssrc for building. I guess it based on i386
code, not MI.
Well, I should not have recalled plex86, but peace which
enables to run win32 binaries directly on NetBSD/i386.
Since it already is integrated to main source tree,
borrowing code from it is woth to consider.
For integrated peace code, take a look at the files under
/sys/compat/pecoff. The projects is page also available.
