The official DOSBox site is showing that 0.74 is current.

Personally I use the builds from HAL9000, a developer on the team. The HAL9000 builds include NE2000 emulation, which I need for my DOS TCP/IP project.

Look for 'MegaBuild 5'

The only problem that I have with DOSBox in general is that it doesn't support Break key handling - if you hit Ctrl-Break it just gets ignored. It's one of the few things that they are not emulating.
