How does this relate to the BeBox emulation I started? I assume not at  
all?
I tried to do the PEF parsing and nub extraction inside QEMU.

I'd prefer the BeBox machine to go into ppc_prep.c and to benefit from  
the PReP cleanup that I started.
I'll have a closer look the weekend, please cc me on future patches.

Thanks,

Andreas
