Again, this is not qemu-system.  Especially since you install qemu-user-static,
not any of qemu-system* packages:

wheezy version of qemu didn't have sufficient support for s390x
(and a few other architectures).  Over time, this support has been
improved, and for example jessie version of qemu works much better,
at least basic debootstrap and even compiler works fine as you were
able to see previously in #799120.

Closing this bugreport now, since the original problem has been fixed
long time ago, and wheezy is oldstable now.

Thanks,
