These are only warnings, things should operate correctly, albeit a bit more
slowly because of the exception handling that has to take place.

What you are referring to here is FX!32, which is NOT just an emulator; it
can actually translate INTEL machine code into Alpha machine code. It runs
ONLY under Alpha NT 4.0.
em86 does NOT do the translation part, it uses ONLY the emulator from FX!32,
and therefore you'll not see the same overall performance from it.
