Hi,

I tested your patch, but it doesn't seem to work when the application
forks a new process (the new process is attempted to run as a native
host executable, instead of with qemu). Is that expected?

I tried enabling binfmt for it, but then qemu needs to be static,
defeating the purpose of this option.
