Yes, I know. The same thing happens when running i386 guests on other
(non-virtual) hosts. E.g. Sparc64's 8kB page, PowerPC64's 64kB page.

The only complete solution that I see is to use softmmu with linux-user, so
that we properly emulate the guest pages. Yes, it will cause quite some
slow-down in emulation, but I believe it's the only reliable way.
