Am I missing something? That was already done in polystrap:
<36073d0c9a389048a7f6a4cd4e9cd28ed1bc32a9>
# copy qemu usermode binary
if [ $ARCH != "`dpkg --print-architecture`" ]; then
         case $ARCH in
 
alpha|arm|armeb|i386|m68k|mips|mipsel|ppc64|sh4|sh4eb|sparc|sparc64)
                 cp `which qemu-$ARCH-static` $ROOTDIR/usr/bin;;
                 amd64) cp `which qemu-x86_64-static` $ROOTDIR/usr/bin;;
                 armel) cp `which qemu-arm-static` $ROOTDIR/usr/bin;;
                 lpia) cp `which qemu-i386-static` $ROOTDIR/usr/bin;;
                 powerpc) cp `which qemu-ppc-static` $ROOTDIR/usr/bin;;
                 *) echo "unknown architecture: $ARCH"; exit 1;;
         esac
fi

I do this to in my multistrap wrapper, but it needs super user rights to 
get it work. I think, polystraps goal was to run in user space.
