   I've put a lot of thought into writing a Macintosh emulator that'd run
   on any m68k based system that uses Mach as an operating system, and
   then releasing it under the copyleft.  Mach is the ideal operating
   system for this sort of thing, and a few things I've heard about the
   Hurd make me think it'd be even easier on a GNU system (once they're
   available).  An MS-DOS emulator on a 386 running Mach should see even
   more benefits.

It certainly will be fairly easy.  I've kept that sort of thing in the
back of my mind the whole way, to make sure that there aren't any
unfortunate obstacles.
