What do you mean, reinstate?  This is the same behaviour you get at
present.  Well, here's a new version that might do that.
I was sure ... hmmm, segfault? ... Oh I see.

I'd copied the (static) exe to a wheezy (3.2 kernel) machine; that's
where it gives a 'cannot execute' error. I suppose that means it's an
upstream 'bug'.

Okay, the new patch is good for me. I've again tried it with the flag
both ways. It runs the executables correctly when the flag is set and
gives a reasonably nice (and quite specific) error when it's not. ("Exec
format error")

I also have a i386 userspace running happily.

I'd say it's good to go.

Ben.
