Well, since we're now at the state of "claiming the obvious": the IO permission bitmap won't work in real-mode or PL0 protected-mode. In protected-mode PL3 it requires IOPL < 3.

Thanks for the promotion... I once tried it and was disappointed ( can't remember why, but most likely because it didn't support protected-mode ).
