If you ignore V86 mode (Win9x, DOSEMU), then you're pretty much stuck with 100% software emulation (a la DOSBox, Bochs) or VT-X (a la VirtualBox, Hyper-V, bhyve).

A recent post on OS News mentioned microkernels, which linked to an old (1991?) paper about implementing DOS support under Mach 3.0.

Also, ReactOS has apparently been hard at work at improving their own NTVDM, which can apparently now play Duke Nukem 3D.
