Title:
  qemu-aarch64-static segfaults

Status in QEMU:
  New
Status in “qemu” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I've found a couple conditions that causes qemu-user-static to core
  dump fairly reliably - same with upstream git - while a binary built
  from suse's aarch64-1.6 branch seems to consistently work fine.

  Testing suggests they are resolved by the sigprocmask wrapper patches
  included in suse's tree.

   1) dh_fixperms is a script that commonly runs at the end of a package build.
       Its basically doing a `find | xargs chmod`.
   2) debootstrap --second-stage
       This is used to configure an arm64 chroot that was built using
       debootstrap on a non-native host. It is basically invoking a bunch of
       shell scripts (postinst, etc). When it blows up, the stack consistently
       looks like this:

  Core was generated by `/usr/bin/qemu-aarch64-static /bin/sh -e
  /debootstrap/debootstrap --second-stage'.
  Program terminated with signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
