run a windows program on a mac with xfree, eh? keep tweaking - it's a hassle but not impossible. search the web about the "DOSemu" section in the XF86config file, there are certain parameters like the pseudo-swap-device that need to be adjusted to your system's layout, i.e. where this and that drive sits etc. Feel free to come here again and ask further questions if it won't work.
