Not really. It might boot (no guarantees!), but it will crash as soon as
the first exception occurs.

I'm not sure. As far as 68010 support is concerned, you can always
drop in that good old 68000, because the speedup is very minor.
General 680x0 support would be very desirable, but requires some work.
