I am not aware of any such utility.  If you have one, please post it!

Some thoughts:
It probably could only handle small model .EXE, because of Minix's
64k+64k limitation.  In addition, there would have to be something done
about any BIOS calls.  Such a utility would probably be extremely hard
to develop, if not impossible.
