Running a FreeBSD binary on Linux using qemu-user
I want to run a FreeBSD binary on Linux using qemu-user (qemu-i386).
This is the binary I'm trying to run: https://tug.org/texlive/xz/xz.i386-freebsd
This is the emulator I'm using: https://github.com/multiarch/qemu-user-static/releases/download/v3.1.0-2/qemu-i386-static
I've downloaded FreeBSD's ld-elf.so and libc.so.7 from http://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/i386/11.0-RELEASE/base.txz and http://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/i386/9.3-RELEASE/base.txz
However, I'm getting segfaults and weird system calls in strace -f ./qemu-i386-static ./xz.i386-freebsd.
Just as a sanity check, running ./qemu-i386-static ./xz.i386-linux works, so qemu-i386-static can run Linux i386 binaries.
Is my use case (running FreeBSD binaries from on Linux) supported by qemu-user? If it's supported, then how can I make it work?
Please note that this question is not a duplicate of Running FreeBSD binaries on Linux , because here I'm trying to use qemu-user, and in the other question they try to run the binaries natively.
