I thought I was offloading, but as I wrote in a follow-up message, there
was no offloading involved and the problem was strictly local
(restarting the local qemu-binfmt service fixed it).

Interesting :-). I pondered about such feasibility in the past, good to
know that it *can* work (with some fiddling :-). I think it'd be neat to
have this documented.

Thank you!
