Thanks, I'll try to use qemu (I don't know what qemu-user is though).
I've tried it before to emulate sparc64 which we lack in cluster, but
it did not work.  I've heard that it's better for those other tier-2
targets you've mentioned.

I'll have a look, but native-xtools thing could be a bit too hard for
me to understand and setup.
