I think there were some attempts to implement this and an outdated? support for arm on x86 exists but x86 cannot be emulated on arm so far. That said I don't really understand arm so I probably won't be writing the support myself and can't help much anybody trying to implement it, at least not anytime soon. Is there any work going on adding this support? Would it be suitable for GSoC? Thanks Michal
