For users using a cross chroot, I encourage you to look at QEMU_USER_TARGETS. I presently use an arm chroot with app-emulation/qemu. Should there truly be a missing feature, open a bug and I'll fix it. The only item I'm aware of that app-emulation/qemu does not have is the binfmt initscript. But I plan on adding that to the unstable version shortly. If there are no objections for 30 days, I'll send a treecleaner notice in 30 days and remove it 30 days after that (60 days from now). -- Doug Goldstein
