Sam: I thought your initial patch was not a bug fix, but a feature
addition, which is why I applied it to the "next" branch. However, I
see in the autobuilders failures of the host-qemu package for
powerpc64, and I believe those would be fixed by your patch. Could you
confirm it's the case? If it is, then I'll cherry-pick the original
patch (+ this additional fix) into the master branch.

Thanks!

Thomas
