qemu-user crashes immediately when running static binaries on the armhf architecture. The problem is the memory layout where the executable is loaded before the interpreter library, in which case the reserved brk region clashes with the interpreter code and is released before qemu tries to start the program.
Fix it by ncreasing the brk value to the highest brk value of interpreter or executable.
