Unfortunately, qemu HEAD cannot execute RTEMS leon3 images unpatched.
The startup code needs a (simple) tweak, and the implementation of the
plug&play is not quite correct. An RTEMS binary fails to detect the
interrupt controller and subsequently terminates. I have spent a few
hours on it but the bug is rather elusive and I am not sure I will be
able to track it down. Debugging low-level target code on qemu is not
exactly user friendly  :-) ...
