Could you summarize how your tree differs from the upstream one? I guess your work could benefit other users, stucked at the current broken state of bsd-user. Some users who reported they switched to the Unicorn Engine [*], I haven't looked at it yet, since I found this thread first, while reading on deprecating unsupported code (another old thread): https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2017-03/msg03519.html Thanks, Phil.
