I did read that MSVPC does/did support the original OS/2 versions.  That
was all before eCS, but I would assume that would also work.

VMWare used to "officially" support OS/2, but dropped it several
years ago. That doesn't mean it won't work, though.  I have yet to find any
OS/2 that won't work in VMWare.  

The only thing to date that I have seen not work is the HPFS.  

The good thing is, I would rather use JFS these days anyway.
