The port 0x501 is (at least) used by SCO Xenix 2.3.4 installer.

For what?  What device would normally be there?

I don't want to disable this by default.  My regression suite depends on this as 
an exit mechanism.

Hi,

I've no idea what installer is trying to do with this port, or what 
device it is probing.

We can maybe add a runtime switch to exit Qemu or not. What do you think 
of '-vgabios-backdoor' which, if specified, does the exit ?

Otherwise, which solution do you propose?

Regards,

Hervé
