Ahh I realise I missed out the implicit binfmt_misc needs to be set up.
So on my Ubuntu system just having qemu-user installed means the host
system binfmt_misc is set up for armhf binaries to run
/usr/bin/qemu-arm. I haven't experimented with explicitly setting up
binfmt_misc in the container because it was already working :-/
