Due to there being a port of Qt5 available for RISC OS RPCEmu now runs on
RISC OS. :-) I've only tried RISC OS 5 so far but everything seems to work
OK apart from keyboard input, sound and networking. I think this is a
limitation of the RISC OS port of Qt5.
It averages about 18 MIPS in the desktop on a Titanium. (RISC OS 5 on RISC
OS 5).
