+Too small argv limit
+
+Current kernels don't have a fixed argv/environ limit any more, but the user-space emulation of qemu is still using a fixed limit.  This can cause execve to fail when it wouldn't on a real system.  For example, the follwing command should not fail in the emulated environment:
+
+$ /bin/true $(yes | head -n 100000)
+-bash: /bin/true: Argument list too long
+
+This was fixed in QEMU 2.5.
