So currently all of the armel PPA buildds that are in auto-mode on
production launchpad are using qemu-arm-static to run their build
chroots.

On staging I saw a dramatic decrease in the number of OOM-type failures
and catastrophic mmap() failures, with a slight uptick in sig11s (on
different packages, and hard to reproduce via re-builds).  We decided it
was Good Enough For Now and moved things into production.

Probably the best way to stress-test this now would be to run a bunch of
armel PPA builds through production launchpad (say, a precise main
rebuild or something) and examine the build failures.  We definitely
felt that this patch gave a worthwhile improvement over the old
behavior.
