Title:
  qemu-user compiled static for ppc fails on 64bit hosts

Status in QEMU:
  New

Bug description:
  On debian I used debootstrap to set up a powerpc chroot. If I then
  copy in a statically linked qemu-user ppc binary it will work for some
  commands in the chroot and fail for others. Steps to reproduce:

  host$ mkdir powerpc
  host$ sudo debootstrap --arch=powerpc --foreign wheezy powerpc 
http://ftp.debian.org/debian
  host$ sudo cp /usr/bin/qemu-ppc-static powerpc/usr/bin/
  host$  LANG=C sudo chroot powerpc /usr/bin/qemu-ppc-static /bin/bash
  I have no address@hidden:/# pwd
  /
  I have no address@hidden:/# cd home/
  I have no address@hidden:/home# ls
  qemu-ppc-static: /tmp/buildd/qemu-1.1.2+dfsg/linux-user/signal.c:4341: 
setup_frame: Assertion `({ unsigned long __guest = (unsigned 
long)(ka->_sa_handler) - guest_base; (__guest < (1ul << 32)) && (!reserved_va 
|| (__guest < reserved_va)); })' failed.

  I have also built this from the git HEAD sources (hash
  6b80f7db8a7f84d21e46d01e30c8497733bb23a0) and I get the same result.
