Alright I misunderstood what was going on.  What is really happening is
that qemu-i386 is crashing on many of my programs (often after the
message Unsupported syscall.

In the debugger, I find that at some point, the inline function ldub_raw
in cpu-all.h is passed a null pointer.  Hence it segfaults.  This may
have something to do with all the libraries I put in my i386- lib folder
to try to get things like wine running, as some programs before ran just
fine and now they segfault.  I will attempt to get a better backtrace.

Oddly enough, when I when to build a qemu binary with all optimization
off to get a better debug view, it now crashes on all programs with an
"illegal instruction error.
