Hello

Richard, using your vdso patch from today that takes into account vtime
as well, running linux-x86_64 code on arm via qemu-user works! Thank you
very much for your support and energy! 

As promised on IRC the software is dead-slow but I do not mind since it
is a batch application anyways.

I only wonder why this is not in the master branch.

Christof
