emulators! emulators emulators emulators emulators emulators!

You can emulate x86 (32, 64 bit) on your ppc via qemu-devel.
I know that mips, mipsel, mips64, mips64el all work via qemu-system-*.
sparc64 is .. coming.
I'm not sure about arm, but I know arm64 can run in the emulator fine.

So hm, can you automate firing things up in emulators?
