I am not able to give a detailed analysis of the problem as I am not aware of exactly what the issue is - I am raising this issue to attempt to bring one of these changes upstream as it seems there is a genuine bug here (hence multiple attempts to fix) but no tracking bug or attention. It's also causing my project to require a custom fork of qemu just for this. + +My (laymans) understanding of the bug is that golang can escape the emulation environment when it execs something to do with `execve /proc/self/exe`.
