>Description:
POSE palm emulator, installed from palm/pose port on FreeBSD 7.x, does not run correctly. When adding ROM image and run, following error occurs:

Hardware exception #3 occurred while the emulator was 
calling the Palm OS function "DlkDispatchRequest". The 
emulator is now in an unstable state and will reset.

After emulator 'soft reset' this error message appears again, so emulator is totally unusable.
>How-To-Repeat:
1. Install POSE
2. Create new configuration, add Palm ROM image.
3. Try to run newly created configuration.
>Fix:
Patch was found here: http://www.opensubscriber.com/message/emulator-forum@news.palmos.com/7847249.html

I've modified it so it applies correctly when port builds.
