This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed- precise' to 'verification-done-precise'.
If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed.

This causes all wine Windows 95 and Windows 98 applications to fail. The 3.14 kernel also includes a feature to re-enable support for 16-bit binaries by providing the /proc/sys/abi/ldt16 interface. This part of the kernel patch was evidently not backported, so this ability to override the 16-bit application prohibition is not available. For this reason, I cannot move forward to new kernel releases until this is fixed.
