It has save state support so it doesn't need to be waterboxed. Came out recently

It has save state support so it doesn't need to be waterboxed.

There's only one waterboxed core that never had its own implementation of standalone savestates. The primary concern for waterboxing is whether those savestates are worth anything; they usually aren't.

We now have a page to track core requests: https://github.com/TASVideos/BizHawk/wiki/Core-Requests
I added a link to this issue and some info, closing this ticket in favor of tracking it there

Well, actually no. BizHawk crashes when we open DOSBox Pure libretro with code -1073741819 (0xc0000005) 'Access violation' (which bypasses BizHawk's crash handler), and nothing else. So there has to be a compability issue causing this. Either BizHawk or DOSBox Pure developer (schellingb) has to fix this.

Libretro version seems to work, though it crashes EmuHawk on close.

I tested libretro version and the only thing I had issues with was input. It's like the start button was the only thing that worked. Very odd. For any late 90s games it would have desync issues
