I built the CVS version, and the installation goes quite a bit further. 
Now things fail in disk1 (which is the second disk of the installation)

At the moment, things go a lot better than with any of the other 
emulators i have tried, so things are looking pretty good.

I created a trace of the crash (yeah, qemu exits with segfault) and it's 
available at http://ressukka.net/~ressu/merlin.log.gz (the log is 6 megs 
compressed). And in case you (or someone else) need the installation 
floppies, disk0 and disk1_cd which should be enough to reproduce the 
issue. I can provide them for testing purposes. (i don't want to put 
them up for public)
