Well, once we've got real hardware it'll be more straightforward because building QEMU on the hardware won't be quite so slow... Most of this is just because crosscompiling is and remains painful. (Alas, you can't compile QEMU in a QEMU arm-linux-user chroot, because gcc segfaults. I blame our mmap emulation layer.)
Just throw in MAP_32BIT in all mmaps and it should work like a charm :)
Want to submit a patch that does that if the host is x86-64? I think I'd rather pragmatically do that and fix the issues in the actually common case rather than hold out for a larger scale reimplementation of the mmap layer which we aren't in practice going to do...
Happily, yes :).
