What about Bochs ?
There already is a native MorphOS port,
it should be possible to make a OS4 port
from that sources.

Eventhough Bochs is fairly easy to port, its slooow as hell. (1.5 mips on a 400 mhz or something dont quite remember).
The main problem with Bochs is that everything is written in C for portability. Now if someone replaced the code for the x86 emulation with a more advanced emulation (JIT, assembler code dont really know how much is possible) we could actually have a nice and fast emulation.
A pc emulator WOULD indeed be really nice to have
