Notice that etch doesn't use many of new syscalls introduced recently,
and doesn't use TLS/NPTL on many archs. So it's not really a very hard
test for qemu-user.

Yes. And I need to get my lazy ass off and start cleaning maemo/debian
linux-user patches and propose them here.

Since what we are actually emulating, is linux kernel syscall interface,
the most exhaustive test would be LTP. but debootstrapping debian is
good smoketest. Other nice tests could be perl/python/glibc testsuites.
