I've now actually tried this for myself.  I don't know whether it was
misdescribed or I misunderstood, but the actual behaviour is quite
different and relatively understandable.  (There are some colour
issues, but the application seems to go into a crash-and-restart loop
of some sort, quite likely an application-level failure.  I thought
from the description that it worked, just excessively slowly.)

My apologies for posting before actually verifying the reported
behaviour for myself.  The only failing 10.1 has here, I would now say,
is incomplete 9.1 emulation, and quite possibly not even that (the 9.1
kernel in question has some changes, and it's possible the lack of one
of those is responsible).
