I had the same problem and found out that disabling address space randomization (echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/randomize_va_space) solves this reliably. With randomization enabled, I can start up dosemu maybe 1 out of 100 times. I guess the randomization patches changed the mapping in a way that dosemu did not expect.
