Have you checked out recent versions of Sourcer, from V Communications?
It's very fast, it can generate .ASM or .LST files, and can be set to
recognize 286- and 386-specific code in 16- or 32-bit segments.  Definitely
worth the small price Sourcer charges for it.

If you just want on-line disassembly, just about any debugger software
currently out there will disassemble 386-specific instructions containing a
prefix.  The only time most debuggers mess up is with prefix-less code in
32-bit segments, because they assume 16-bit segments.

AG> Any pointers to source code would be extremely helpful.

Unfortunately, Sourcer does not come with its own source!  (perhaps you
could use Sourcer on itself, although I presume that would violate your
license agreement with them :-)
